Hi all, my mom called the other day, and let me know she has a hairline fracture in her L femur. I don't know the location, they sent her home with crutches and a immoblizer, and she's got a appt for friday with the ortho. I'm thinking casting with limited activity for 8-12 weeks, but who knows until they look at it. Just need some prayers that she won't need any type of surgery. Thanks.
