Poor Pepe’s mum had a fall yesterday & broke her hip. Op tomorrow. She has Parkinson’s Disease. My gran had the same accident & mum has had 60 falls (over 10 yrs). I’ve advised daughter to impress on nurses that she MUST have her PD meds regularly & on time. I know what happens if that goes wrong

Ah

Oh dear God!!! This is exactly what happens when dogs and cats lay down together. 😳 #Caturday
