We seem to be accident-prone lately

Yeah. The heating has been fixed, which is good, but poor Mum took a fall in the living room and managed to land on the armrest of her chair. Fortunately, it's an overstuffed armchair, so she didn't break any bones, but now she has a roughed up patch of skin on her arm. It looks almost like the burn I had on my hand a couple of years ago, just not so severe. But it's ugly enough; the fabric that's covering the armrest rubbed against her skin and there was some bleeding, too. It's begun scabbing over (is that the right word?) but I don't know what we're supposed to do with it for the night. She's a very restless sleeper and I'm afraid that she'll make things worse, even if we bandage the injury.

Never a calm day for the wicked. *sigh*
