{{{{{{{{{Wendy}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} no she won't go, not even for xrays. My dad was out running errands and that's when she got up on the ladder with the curtains. She likes to hang them up right from the washing machine so they are still sort of wet, makes them straighter or whatever. I'm sure that the weight helped in creating the fall.

My parents are different - nice way of saying it. I could call anyone I wanted, and they'd never answer the door - then they would cut me out of their lives for interfering. I'm not saying that it makes any sense to you - I know the rules by which I grew up.

Yes, anything would be better than crawling. It made me feel so helpless to watch her, but my father supports her decision not to go, esp. since she can move her shoulder and arm. I think an xray is in order, but that doesn't matter.

My mom raised me to never have the kind of life she has with my dad - I couldn't live like that......so now I have just created my own hole. If the situation was reversed, like when I was in the hospital, they would not come to me, unless maybe I was dying. Anyway, I have learned to know where I stand and not cross the line.

Thanks for caring. xoxoxo
