Tough as Nails

I had to look those up - Yikes! And major BUMMER!

Would some walking sticks have helped her steady herself before the fall - or was she already using them?

I've broken a few bones and there was always that point where the pain did get annoying and some pharmas sure helped.

Yes, she was using hiking poles....it was just a bit of bad luck the way she landed.
 
Wishing your wife a speedy recovery!! This story really stresses the need to have a good first aid kit on your person! Good work on the sling and splint btw.
