Post-surgical update

Marc's mom went home a couple of days ago. They did the kyphoplasty, and that seems to have been a success. She says that she has occasional shots of pain, but she's pain-free most of the time.

Her leg is doing well enough that the physical therapist says she won't need therapy for long.

So everything's going pretty well. It would be better if she never fell in the first place, but that's obviously not an option! So things are going fine with her, all things considered.

Today, it's holiday party time at my brother and sister-in-law's. That should be fun. The sun's shining. Really, I can't complain! :)

It's good to hear that it's going well. I hope a full recovery is imminent.

Glad to read she's doing better!

Thanks, guys! It's a relief that she's doing so well, especially considering how devastating such injuries can be in someone her age.
