Good news - it’s not fractured, but first bit of bad news was they were concerned about her breathing, and initial checks showed she had a chest infection.

As the Elderly Medicine Unit in Leeds is at St James (and she was at LGI), she was transferred this afternoon - we have just found out she has tested COVID positive, so she is being transferred to a COVID ward at St Jimmy’s.

We’re a bit broken up about this news...
My mother had a fall earlier this year and is a similar age. Broke her hip, which us not good news that age, and was in hospital for weeks. We couldn't visit because of covid. Couldn't get her to work phones/ webcam as she has dementia. Nightmare situation and we feared the worst, but she has recovered.

Best of luck. Even most elderly folks recover from covid. Hope you can make some sort of contact.
