I hope she feels better and heals quickly.

Me too, may she soon fully recover.

Oh dear. Multiple fracture is not fun. Of course it's the dominant hand.

This, and at 77 you don't heal as quickly.

Prayers and best wishes for her recovery.

Poor dear probably stuck her hand out in an attempt to catch herself (as one does).  I did the same thing in college.  Hopefully she’ll feel better soon and heal up nicely.

That sounds like an unpleasant shock for an older lady, I hope she will recover quickly.

It is a clear human instinct, a kind of reflex. Over time I have heard various people breaking or bruising 1 or both wrists after trying to catch themselves when falling (of all ages). I once bruised an underarm while trying to catch myself in a bike accident (I also instinctively wanedt to prevent to fall with my whole weight on a child who ended up under me in the accident). But in this case in combo with her age and such it will probably take more time to heal.  Best wishes to Silvia.
