Grandma's arm

We went to Kalamazoo tonight to have supper w/ Dad and Mom. I was prepared to see mom in a lot of pain and very down, but we had a wonderful surprise when we got there. She was doing GREAT! We brought supper from Taco Bell and I was wondering how mom was going to eat w/ one hand, but she can use both hands. She was reading the newspaper, holding it up w/ both hands, too and walking w/ her walker, using both hands. Her arm hurts when she tries to raise it up, but she uses it very well! She was joking and laughing with us. She is no longer taking Vicodin and said that she does not need it. Norm and I talked to her about how important it is that she uses her walker. We told her that we are so thankful she did not break a leg and end up in a nursing home! Mom said she will probable use her walker when she goes to church.
BTW - When she fell at the apartment, she was using a cart to walk with.
