Home from Hospital and Rehab Facility
Two weeks ago Mrs. Jim fell and broke her hip. After a partial hip joint transplant (new ball installed in the socket) the following Monday and being transferred to a rehab center Thursday she was released yesterday to come home. There will be out patient rehab next, starting Monday.
How did it happen? She fell while going through a rail type fence because her left foot tripped on the lower board. That happened in Trinity, Texas and we had to get her to our St. Luke's hospital in the Woodlands for the surgery of her choice.
Above is one of the many visitors Mrs. Jim had. [You can click on the picture for a larger sized view]. This friend, Lynn, brought her Mike the Tiger from Baton Rouge. Mike is the escort of Mrs. Jim's college, LSU. They have an excellent football team.
Here is Mike standing guard by the flowers that our daughter, Karen, sent.
And outside Mrs. Jim's window, "Life goes on."
