Yesterday, my Mom had a fall. She was out taking Leia for a walk. Leia did NORT cause her to fall but rather something in the city sidewalk! Something was sticking up out of the normal sidewalk. Her foot got caught and she fell. When she fell, Leia thought she was playing and she went to jump on my Mom but my Mom told her, “No!” and told her to sit down.
Leia is NOT Lassie so she does not run and get help but our sweet girl just sat down next to my Mom until my Mom got her bearings together. She finally came back into my house and put frozen corn on her face because she had an abrasion on her nose and a scrape on her knee.
it was my aunt who convinced her to call the police. She did and made an incident report. Two police officers came by and she showed them where she fell. They took pictures of it and asked if she was hurt and she answered in the affirmative. She told them her face and one police officer shined the light on her face and was surprised at the abrasion on her nose.
They took pictures of her face and her name as well.
My Mom is feeling better today and her abrasion looks a little bit better. We laughed at the fact that Leia did NOT come and get the help for my Mom but she stayed and comforted her.
She can’t get help when someone is hurt and she can’t even pick up my phone when it falls on the floor from my wheelchair but I will take her over Lassie ANY DAY!!!
