I got a phone call this morning from Bill, Mum's next door neighbour, saying when he popped round, he found Mum on the floor so he rang for an ambulance. We're not sure how long she's been on the floor but I spoke to Mum last night and she seemed her normal self, she'd eaten her tea and was complaining about what was on the telly as usual. We think she’s tripped over her walking crutch. Florence's Daughter
