Posted: 9/22/08 at 5:54pmNot a laughing matter. At her age this can be serious. My Mom passed away during the surgery for this kind of injury.

Of course it's not a laughing matter!
Carol is a wonderful person and I hope she recovers quickly.
Sorry to hear about your mom.

Posted: 9/23/08 at 12:33amI hope she heals quickly. Fortunately, she has taken very good care of herself over the years. Here's hoping that contributes to her having a full recovery.

Except that Carol never lip-syncs.
I hear our beloved Carol slipped on a corn cob which had fallen on the floor from her dinner plate. Poor dear.
PEACE.
