Default John's Mom had a Fall :(

He spent Wednesday and a good bit of yesterday with her at the hospital. It
seems she passed out and fell right on her face with no hands outstretched
to try to break her fall. She has a broken nose, some bones in her face are
damaged and her eyes are blackened and swollen shut. The nurse found her on
the floor of her apartment when she came around to see if she was coming to
dinner in the dining room of the nursing home. Gretchen doesn't remember
falling at all. They were giving her IV fluids and some pain medication.
No idea why she passed out. She's been eating. Her blood pressure appears
to be under control. She's going back to her apartment at the home today
but will have a nurse with her at all times until she recovers.

John flies to Rochester tomorrow to deal with her house and other property.
Spare purrs for her would be appreciated.
