There is always a reason to be up this late

I am right now about 3 hours past my "bed-time". I stayed up for the debate and the after-commentary, and then I fiddled around online, writing an acerbic blog, then went to bed, or I thought.
I did not even get into my PJs and my cell phone started ringing. My heart stopped beating, because I knew if someone was ringing me at 11:30 p.m. then it must be grave.
I had learned today that a family friend and neighbor to my parents was in a coma with 3 brain aneurisms, so my first thought was that. Please pray for her family, her healing, and those Dr.s and nurses who are with her.

The call was my nephew, who is out of town with my Dad. Apparently they just received a call that my Mom, with her friend at a local football game, had mis-stepped over a speed bump and fell, resulting in two broken wrists.. that is the first report, coming from a 10 yr. old.

UPDATE OK just got off the cell with her friend, they are thinking it is for sure her wrist, maybe the opposite arm and knee... her friend will stay with her but I may have to run to the ER, right now she hasn't been unloaded from the ambulance yet.
