A good friend here fell on some steps in her house a couple of days ago, sustaining a 1/2 to 2/3 compression fracture of the L1 vertebra. We went over to see her for a few minutes this morning. X-rays have been taken, but because of the holidays and waiting for things to settle down around the area, it'll be ten days before they do an MRI. Then they'll decide what treatment needs to be done. In the meantime, she's mostly bed-bound, pretty much flat on her back, and taking pain meds. I'm sure the swim group will be taking food over the next days and weeks. She says right now, she needs company - just lying there is pretty boring. I don't know what their holiday plans were - they have no children. But they do have a new puppy, so her husband is going to having lots to do for a while. Good thoughts are definitely appreciated.

Stanford seems to be the one to beat; the Huskies play them next weekend.
Hope the bed rest helps your friend while she waits.
Blessings to you and your friend.
