 Just wanted to give an update on Mom (Barbara). She broke her foot tonight while trying to hold the door open for me as I carried in groceries. She slipped out the door and twisted her foot on my outdoor mat. She went to a Patient First where they x-rayed it and said the long bone (metatarsal) attaching to the pinky toe on the right foot is broken all the way through. She's supposed to call her orthopedic doctor tomorrow.

God love her, it's always something.......

Hey Cliff! Mom went to the orthopedic doctor today. He said if she had to break a bone in her foot, that is the best one to break. She's allowed to do whatever she CAN do. He said her foot will tell her what she can and cannot do. Right now it's still very painful and she can't put any weight on it.

This is a graphic of which bone it is. From what she told me, I would think the broken area is probably closest to where it says "Jones Fracture" although I don't know if it is really a Jones Fracture.

I'm so sorry to hear about this. Barbara sure does have trouble those feet. How many foot crises have there been anyway? I seem to remember seeing her in one of those boots a couple of times at least. Give her my best wishes for a speedy healing.

She broke her leg,she's had 3 separate foot surgeries, and now a broken foot. The surgeries and the broken foot are on the right. The broken leg was on the left.

Sounds like a "competition" I heard George Carlin talk about years ago. He was updating the audience on the standings in the "Comedians' Health Sweepstakes." He said, "I lead Richard Pryor in heart attacks, 2 to 1, but Richard leads me in burning yourself up, 1 to nothing." He went on to say, "Richard had a heart attack, so I decided I'd have one. Then Richard lit himself on fire, and I said, 'F*ck that, I'm having another heart attack!'"
