My 91 year old father in law had a senior moment last nite.. one he'd rather forget. He fell in the kitchen and badly gashed his forehead. As he is on blood thinning meds the cut refused to stop and he was taken to hospital where he stayed overnite. His daughters, son and I insist he uses the walking frame purchased for him. But the old coot is too stubborn.
