3 Jul 2016: In the middle of the night Jeanne awakened me, crying out, "I can'T sit up. I can"T move." I sat up and turned on the light. She sat up. Her rib cage was very painful. After a while, we both went back to sleep. In the morning it became aparent that she was not going to be able to do very much and it would be necessary to seek medical attention. We needed to have her foot x-rayed too in order to make sure the three metatarsal bones were mending correctly. We stayed in the coach all day until about 1630 when we got in the car and drove over to The Village a few miles away where there was a clinic. It was very difficult for her to get dressed and move into and out of the car.
The staff at the clinic were excellent. They x-rayed her ribcage and foot . The doctor, P. A. and nurse were all thorough and efficient. They had the off site physician confirm their interpretation of the x-ray results and all agreed there were no broken ribs and the foot was healing nicely. We returned to the coach relieved. It didn'T hurt any less but the news was encouraging.
