BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | The lady I care for just fell! A lot of you know I take care of 2 elderly ladies. One of them just fell a while ago, she was on her way to the bathroom and lost her balance and fell backwards, I just could not get to her fast enough. I think she may have broken her wrist and possibly her tail bone. I feel so bad, if I could just have been 10 seconds faster, she may not be at the hospital right now. My mom is with her, I tried to get a hold of her daughter, but she was not home and not answering her cell phone. Virgina is 89 yrs old and has Alzheimer's, besides that she was in great health. Please say a prayer for her. |

| So sorry, but you can't prevent things like this happening. Hope she is ok and didn't break her hip.............If you did your best than no one could have asked more out of you.

She is definitely one of a kind! She has the most funniest since of humor! You never know what she is going to say! When you bend over in front of her to pick something up, she will say "Ohhh boy, does that look tempting" LOL I pray she did not break a hip, if she did, then more then likely she will have to go back to the nursing home I have not heard anything yet from my mom, I will let you know. Thanks for the prayers, they are greatly appreciated! | |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Praying for Virginia. My dad is 87 and he fell just the other day and I was 2 feet in front of him. It happens so fast. He was ok but he almost falls a lot. You can't watch them every second so you can only do the best you can.

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | Great News!!!! I just got a update on Virgina, she did NOT break anything!! I really think she had a guardian angel watching over her! If you would have seen how she fell, you would just be amazed! Her daughter is bringing her back a little later, so thank you for your prayers! They worked! |

| Missy, I'm just seeing this now. What a scare you and Virginia had. But so glad she's ok. Accidents happen and don't blame yourself. My sister cares for a lady who has MS. Doing that kind of work is harder than what people think.

| Do not feel bad...accidents happen...we took care of a mentally disabled lady for four years up until 2 weeks ago...two years ago I was showering her and my friend was out back and turned the hose on to water the dogs...that took the cold water out of the shower and I scalded her legs!!! It was so scary and I blamed myself..but it was an accident!! I hope that this lady recovers quickly from her fall...she will be in my thoughts!! Dawn |

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | What a relief that she didn't break anything! Don't blame yourself for her falling, sometimes things just happen. I'm sure you do a wonderful job taking care of both of these ladies.
