Mom is still in the hospital and will be there over Christmas. The pain has subsided, she doesn't need surgery, but cannot put weight on her leg for 3 weeks. After that, she'll be in a cast for 6-8 weeks. As long as it mends, she won't need surgery. If it doesn't mend, they'll do a knee replacement (the break was just below the knee).
I intend to stick to my exercise routine despite the fact that I've caught a cold and my running routine makes me have to run on Christmas morning. I'm sure that I'll be back before anyone else wakes up!
