In the last year my mom has had problems with balance and weakness in her back and legs.
She is a typical 80something woman who has osteoporosis.
Mom's pretty easily confused and, so, it's difficult to find out from her what happened.
She fell.
Either it was when she was taking a shower or immediately after her shower but still in the bathroom.
She remembers becoming aware when she was lying on the floor.
Our greatest concern is that she's in pain and it's the same pain she felt when she crushed a vertebrae a while back.
We're trying to get her x-rayed.
She's also telling us that the home's quarantined due to the flu.
I'm trying to get in touch with the one person on staff who works with mom most regularly and can answer all the questions.
