The beginning of the end?

The beginning of the end?

We can only hope.

 

[rightwinger]

Hope she is well

Thats how my Grandmother went.
Broke her hip but she was too frail to operate,she didnt last long after that.

Broken ribs are no fun. I had broken ribs when I was in my twenties. It's probably way tougher on a senior citizen. Bones are a little more brittle at that age.

Hope she is well

At 85 it won't be easy. I remember my grandmother's spiral to the end

I hope she recovers quickly.

I hope she recovers quickly.

Yeah. Hate to see anyone at that age in a bad way.

Broken ribs need to be taped really tight.
I hope they use Gorilla tape...

Ribs are different than hips...she can still be mobile.

So you're saying she can still go to her Jazzercise workouts?

---------------------------------------- most often thats how it goes , old age , get a cold , get the flu or break a leg . Course she'll be getting the BEST of everything at taxpayer expense plus she'll be collecting a paycheck for doing nuthin NatCitizen .

Tick tick tick tick........Trump better get his short list ready.

This is really amazing- there is a decent chance the country will be in, or just emerging from a recession around Nov 2020. That could make Trump a one-termer like Jimmy and Bush. Yet he could potentially appoint 3 Supremes which would essentially mean his legacy would be greater than Both Bush’s, Clinton and BO. Weird and wacky, huh.

They stopped wrapping ribs because it can cause fluid to gather in your lower lungs.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg hospitalized after fall in her office

Years ago I worked at a State University hospital mostly in the intensive Care wards. it was there that I first became familiar with the term parkinsonian mask. That actually is a condition of muscle relaxation in the facial area that is a reliable precursor of death.

You get to recognize it when you see it and realize sadly what it means.

I look at Ruth bader Ginsburg I see it very loudly. I believe Ruth is being pressured to stay in ofgice by the DNC and not retire.
I believe they are responsible for what happens to her. This poor woman can barely stay awake she should be home on a completely different regimen that caters to her frail health.

This is all going to happen very quickly.

She's broken ribs before a few years back; osteoporosis happens to all older folks and her bones have endured chemo, too. She's very tough and she'll be fine. She fell in her office, while working late. She's a trooper!

LOL....she was probably sleeping in her chair and fell out of it.

I'm not a fan of her politics, but it truly sucks to have an injury like that at any age.

Just let go of the politics for 10 seconds and imagine she's your grandmother
