Tough old geezers for sure! Get well soon. Get out of the hospital as soon as they can and keep truckin. Lucky to have offspring that care.
WTH?
How do you;
A- not notice that and
B- not give a wide berth for something that old
My older brother has rounded up a shower chair. I got to round up a cheap rental car for the week, or get a car service to bring me to their house and back to the airport. Kinda pointless to rent it all week and have it just sit there. Been there w pain meds before. The flip side is when I come back home here, my brothers will be helping tor 2 weeks before I have to hop a flight back.Dang Matt! That's awful. I stopped reading and said a prayer for all of y'all....and especially your parents before I even finished reading your post. I'm sure they will be in good hands with you and your brothers taking care of them. Sounds like your Mom is going to be hurting for a while. A handicap shower chair may be a big help for them if your brothers can round one up pretty quickly before they get home. Be prepared for the pain meds to stop your Mom up, which can cause her as much or worse pain if it happens. I'm so glad you and your brothers can be there for them. I wouldn't give the car a whole lot of thought until your folks are vastly improved.
WOW Best of luck on their recovery. Sounds like they were both really lucky, judging from the car on it's side. I'm old enough to remember actually riding in model A's My Dad had a flatbed pickup and for awhile an AA dump truck.
