Mom's mishap

Last week, my mom was on a cruise.  She was due to arrive back home on Saturday, although by then we would be at my in-laws.  She and my sister spent Easter with my grandmother (Dad's mom) and aunt & uncle.  I chatted with her briefly on Saturday when she let me know that she was home, and I planned to give her a quick call when we arrived back home on Monday.  However, we had not yet left the state of PA when my cell phone rang.  I immediately panicked when I recognized it was a friend of my mom's...there could be no good reason for her needing to call me.  And I was correct!  Mom had fallen that morning and her good friend had taken her to the e/r.  While they were trying to get some x-rays of the shoulder, it had become dislocated.  Mom was in a great deal of pain, but was hanging in there.  I felt awful, but there was literally nothing I could do.  My aunt called me again as we were nearly home to let me know that my mom was back at her house and G.G. would be staying with her.  I checked in quickly when we finally made it back to our house, and although groggy, she was doing fine.  It's her right arm which is really inconvenient for her, but she has very good friends who are again tremendously helpful.  We had made plans to have lunch this afternoon and we are keeping them...I'm sure she has much to tell us!
