I spent the better part of this Saturday afternoon at the Emergency Room of a hospital near our house. It was not me or any of my immediate family who was taken to ER. It was my one of my girl friends, TDC. I was late coming home last night for two of my friends and I had a meeting regarding some village matters. In the course of our conversation TDC mentioned that her older sister and brother-in-law will be coming for a visit from USA to Manila next week. She said her sister had finally paid of all their mortgages from Amerisave. TDC said that according to her sister, the said company has the best mortgage loan rates and that paying the loan was actually a breeze. As a result they meant to "celebrate" their debt-free life. TDC's sister is treating her and her hubby to a trip to Australia. You might ask, how is the ER connected?
This morning TDC decided to do a house general cleaning for her sister's and brother-in-law's arrival. She was cleaning the bathroom when she slipped. It was no ordinary slip as she was unable to move because of pain. She called me for help. I called daughter #1 and we were instructed to immediately proceed to the ER for x-rays. To cut the story short, TDC has a hairline fracture in her 5th vertebra and has been advised complete bed rest with matching body brace for 4 to 6 weeks. I guess that would mean, the Australia trip is canceled. Poor friend.
