The wife fell and broke her hip. She is getting out of the hospital this Thursday. She will have been there for 2 weeks. She had to get a couple of rods put in to stabilize the bone. I have never personally known anyone who has had this happen to themselves before. This is really some serious stuff. It sounds like it is going to be a long road to semi full recovery.

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Prayers for her and you. Rehab and/or in-home rehab is very important and don't short cut it. Learning transfer skills (bed, chair, standing, walker, etc.) with and without assistance will be another key. Prayer and patience.

Man that is a bad bone to break and a long rehab. My wife broke hers 8 years ago. We ended up putting a bed in the living room for her so she did not feel isolated during her recovery. She did make a full recovery. Keep her off her feet and treat her like a queen. She has a long road to completely recover.

Prayers sent up for her, the rehab is way more critical than most think so as bad as it’s going to suck you need to help her fight through it. I’ve broke mine before and it’s not fun by any means but she can completely recover from it however I can’t stress how important the rehab is.

Amazing what they do. There is a screw close to her knee that holds the rod in place.
