Friday news

Hope everyone had a great Labor Day! This short week started out with a bang! Tuesday night my brother called me to come help him with our mother who had fell. Mother is 87,diabetic, and uses a walker to get around. I knew I wouldn't be of any help and luckily my son-in-law, Rodney, was in the back yard and he took off running. I live about 100 feet from mother and my brother lives on the other side. We called for an ambulance because mother was weak, trembling, and could not stand by herself. So, after about four hours in the emergency room, they decided to keep her overnight. Her big toe had a corn that had gotten infected and was the main reason she was trembling and weak. Today they decided the big toe needed to be removed tomorrow morning. Hope this helps her feel better.
Other than that, the rest of the week has been uneventful. I got a mani/pedi this morning. I thought I would go a little bold with the color.
Justin said my toes look like a zombie's!
