@indigo :-( I'm so sorry.
I've been visiting a friend who's in a similar stage. She's got considerable strength in her right arm and okay movement but that's about it. Her mental faculties are still there but she can barely talk. I take her a smoothie once a week and we "visit" for about an hour. She loves the smoothies so I'm happy to do it but it's so sad.
@joeo10 Thanks. He was in a lot of pain a couple hours after it happened and they were pretty convinced he'd broken something but no sign of a break in the x-rays so no cast. Just a brace. Hopefully, he'll let it heal properly. (That's very unlikely.)

@feorlen I don't answer my land line for that reason. I really need to get rid of it! I do answer my cell phone, though, unless it's an obvious spammer.

@indigo Yep! How are things? My father fell and severely sprained his wrist yesterday. He and my mom have my sister's dogs for a week. This should prove frustrating for everyone!
From the SoVeryBritish twitter account (if I didn't know better, I'd think @indigo had submitted this to them):
"You've got a missed call"
I know, I was staring at my phone as I was missing it
