Spending the day with a friend who fell down the stairs at her condo this morning & broke her arm in 2 places :(

Posted by JenBro May 24 '14, 10:14

She's in surgery now - getting the ulnar supported with plate & screws, the other break - radial head? They will leave to heal without support - and so she can move & bend at the elbow and hopefully minimize the potential for permanent problems.

Bum mer!

thanks everyone ... I told her some of our Vegas stories to keep her mind off the pain - it worked! She even laughed! -- nm - JenBro May 24, 10:51

You are being a great friend -- nm - con_carne May 24, 10:47
With a good friend like you the healing vibes will kick in and she will get well faster -- nm - Bacon May 24, 10:37

So sorry for her. :-( A break near the elbow can be very annoying to deal with while it heals. I hope she does well and heals quickly. -- nm - Krusty May 24, 10:21 4
- Thanks Krusty!!! she and another friend and I had a lunch date today for a new place that called their marinara sauce "Sunday Gravy" - I am holding - JenBro May 24, 10:28 3
  - My family called it gravy all the time. That's a huge argument in my family and with a lot of Italian-Americans. I would give it a try, if they're - Krusty May 24, 10:36 2
    - The word 'gravy' is used a lot in some types of South Asian cooking as well. It's basically curry. - Roger More May 24, 10:44
    - a lot of old world sauces were high in fat content, often using ribs for both the fat and broth flavor so gravy is appropriate - zeitgeist May 24, 10:44
