Audrey Update #1

from Allison on September 13


Al JUST called.
The doctors believe Audrey broke her pelvis and THEN she fell.

The good news is:
The break is clean so no surgery needs be done.

She WILL stay in hospital for 3 days and THEN 6-8 weeks at either
Oak Crest or Gulf Point Plaza.

She will be taught in Physical Therapy to bear weight on her LEFT leg--the opposite side to the fracture. THEN she will be assisted to gradually begin bearing more weight on the right.

They are feeding her today, the NPO sign is down (since no surgery)
and Audrey and Al are feeling better! YEAH!
