fall

[zyx_lamerveille]

My father just fell down while rushing to pick up the stupid ringing phone. He was going to sit down on the sofa but did not do it properly and slipped. I was in the toilet and so was the maid in the other toilet. My father was his usual kalang-kabok self. The fall did not seem serious (at this moment) but I don't think such things *should* happen

oh dear. lucky thing the fall isnt serious.

indeed. I was so worried when I heard him cry out as he fell. He suffered a bruise on his left finger but that has since subsided. Thanks for the concern! :)

Do take care....Must tell your dad, if there is any pain, must tell you.

Old folks normally dont tell, and just brush it off by thinking it is not serious...

yeah, he was smiling and very dismissive of the fall, saying that he wasn't hurt despite the bruise swelling up on his finger. I guess I looked so worried and angry that he would rather let the matter blow over... I also told the maid to pay attention to any signs of pain or swelling and let me know immediately even when I'm working during weekdays. Perhaps I am overacting, but then I feel that I haven't cared enough for my mother before and so...
