Dad this time

I was on landscaping project here at the development all morning, when I got home there was a call from Mom and Dad, dad needed to go to Urgent Care.  The short story is he fell last Monday and they suspect he broke his hip.  You wouldn't know it from this photo, but he did have to use a cane (behind his leg in photo).  The pain is pretty bad (He does wear a pain patch) but he is moving around.  The doctor said he would send any other patient that age to the Emergency Department....but he knows Dad and felt that if we went to the Hospital tomorrow with an appointment for an x-ray and follow up early next week with primary care doctor for the CT scan that it would be okay for him to just go home.  He will be 93 in August.

I did get some osprey photos early this morning, but thought this depicted the day better.
