2011-11-20 Grandma Donna breaks her hip

I had the inspiration to call the Legacy Care Center to see about visiting Grandma Donna, and the receptionist told me that she had been taken to Riverton Hospital the day before because she fell and broke her hip. She had surgery to repair her hip and is dizzy and disoriented. Her adopted son, Rob Buttle, was at the hospital, but he was more interested in telling me woes than telling me what he knew about Donna's condition.

Donna thought that she had fallen two months ago. She also said she had to wait for 5 years to have her teeth fixed. She wanted to go back to Legacy as soon as possible and didn't want to be moved to a rehab place.

Donnalyn moved her to the Rocky Mountain Rehabilitation Center on 12600 South and 3400 West where she will stay for at least the next six weeks. She can't put weight on her hip for that long (or longer).
