|   M-U-M update (tibial plateau fracture) | Hollis
Feb 20, 2003 9:59 AM | | The surgery went well, it wasnt as bad as expected
(Ti Plate & Screws and all the bits are where they should be).
I talked to a drugged up Mum & she said she's doing ok, considering.
They want her up & using a walker before they release her from the hospital,
which should happen later today.
She is one tough cookie, I can just see her in a Wheelchair On The Trail!
I found a image using Google, just to give you a visual. |
