My MIL went into surgery a few hours ago to repair her hip. The ball at the top of the femur had completely snapped off and was jammed into the socket. It is unsure as to whether the surgeon is going to replace the joint or repair it.
Hubby can't get out of his Guard duty this weekend, so he will be going down there on Monday to see his Mom. This is hitting him quite hard. He already feels guilty for not being able to see her more, and now not being able to be there for her now is tearing him up.
I'm hoping that SIL will give us a call after she hears from the surgeon post surgery. I would like to know how it went and how Mom is doing.
