fall with a hip fracture

[Eliactida1955]

I fell on the 18 and landed on my left buttock right where the tumor is . Ther hospital emergency transferred me out at 2 am in the ambulance to another city because of specialty care needed. M d Anderson refused me even though I am their patient. They were full they said. Surgery was done ye so we will see. Surgery was done but I fell they really didn’t want to. Delaying and disorganized. The hospital is ut medical of Galveston. Does anyone have any info on having this done and outcome?

ooof, I’m so sorry you had this fall and broke your hip. And further sorry the hospitals weren’t more helpful! I’m just sending you love and light and best wishes for a full and speedy recovery.

I’m so sorry and I’ve always held MD Anderson in high regard

[Eliactida1955 in reply to Shafight]

I know but not sure now

UTMB trauma surgery is one of the best around. I slipped and fell in 2018 and landed on my behind with my femur breaking above the knee. I had Dr. John Hagedorn, orthopedic trauma surgeon and 5 years later I have never had a problem with it. He inserted a titanium rod in my leg from hip to knee. UTMB cancer center on 1st floor is also M.D. Anderson. Hope this helps in some small way; hope you had Dr. Hagedorn. God bless you and heal us all in Jesus name, amen. <3

Prayers sent. Its so scary sometimes what we go through when we have an emergency situation. I feel like I have PTSD from my 33 hrs held in an ER in February, on a Rule/out stroke protocol happened. It sounds like you are headed in the right direction at this point, and YOU are asking the right questions right now, good girl!🙏

I didn't fall but both hips broke 18 mins ago. Both were replaced and I had radiation to both which made me very tired for at least a month.

Dear Eli I am SO sorry to hear about your terrible fall. And really disappointed in MD for sending you elsewhere! Ugh! That doesn't seem right at all. I would be upset! I have terrible hip pain and my tumors are right next to my hip-especially my left hip so I know that pain. Breaking yr hip where there is already a tumor sounds very complicated bc they cant just go on and reset thehip joint bone. It could disrturb or rupture the tumor. Ihope and Pray there IS a Specialist who can and WILL help you ASAP! Sending you a warm friendly gentle hug. Keeping you in my thoughts and Praying for you! Stay Strong. 🙏💖💪💐

[Eliactida1955 in reply to Hidden]

they did the surgery and stabilized with pin and rod. The tumor ate the bone they say but I felt if I didn’t trip it wouldn’t have broken so soon. We will art how it goes- less than 24 hours standing and dangling on bed took 3-4 steps. Pray for me🙏✝️

You can rest assured Eli 🙏💖🙏 Sending you many warm gentle thoughts and you have my Prayers. I Prayed for you last night and I will again this evening. I will be keeping you close in my Heart and thinking of you and Praying for God's Great Healing to come to you-Praying for the Holy Spirit to come to you and surround you with Great Comfort, Healing and Love 🙏💖 Praying for you to be visited by the Angels who are caring for you-May they Be Gentle with you always-May you feel Warm-Gentle-Healing Care and L O V E 💖💖💖There is a Wonderful Amy Grant song,

"Angels watchin over me every step I take!

Angels watchin over me every where I go

Angels watching over me "

i sing that song and have listened to it in my darkest scariest times and it helps a lot.

"Thy word

is a lamp unto my feet

Your the light unto my path

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet

Your the light unto my path..

When i feel afraid

Think i've lost my way

Still you're here

Right beside me

Jesus be my guide

And hold me to your side

Peace be near me to the end"

Thy Word by Amy Grant is such a Healing song. I often sing it when I wake up from major surgery. I gets my Faith and Hope going for those Stormy days!

If Music 🎶🎵🎹 helps you as it does for me try to listen to some of your favorites. You need Compassion, Hope and Healing Love.

This is VERY tragic and Traumatic!- and not easy to endure. You are VERY STRONG! 💪💖

If you can try to remember Eli,

God has got your heldfast in the Almighty Palm ✋🙏💪 of his hand! I always ask the Holy Father to please Father Pick me up and carry me across these waters I give myself over to him and put my Faith and Trust in Him.

It has always helped to just imagine him scooping me up into his arms and feeling him carrying me -surely, gently... Lovingly! Just like The Footprints in the Sand story....HE always comes through....

If you can give yr Sweet doggie some imaginary pats and pets and love up on them until you get back home. I Believe dogs can feel the spirits of their owners. It helps me to do that to my fur baby 🐶💖

Sometimes the best way to get better IS to take it SLOW. Don't ask yr body for too much right now.

That was a massive injury and operation! HUGE! 💪

The hip replacement will need time to settle in and it's all new to yr body. Yr body needs time to accept and adjust to the new hip.

Reaching out to you in the Spirit of Love and Hopefulness! Praying for You! You are not alone! If you can ask if a chaplain can please come and Pray with you I bet the Nurses or Social workers can find someone? I hope yr doggie is safe and sound? Try to talk to yr doggie on the phone bc I know they miss you too!

Warm Love to you Eli 🙏✋👸🌟💐🐶🎵💖

Take it S L O W!

You are so very Welcome. Thank you too for the Caring and Love. I have been carrying this heavy Chemo pump around for 2 days now. It's so heavy! And I can't just take a shower like I always do. It's not a fun thing..anyway, I guess it's keeping me alive so I feel Blessed! Tomorrow it comes off. Yay! I just said some Comfort and Healing Prayers for you tonight. You have the Faith and that will get you through this and never let you go! 😇🙏👣❤️ one step at a time. . . .

[Eliactida1955 in reply to Hidden]
