Top 10 similarities between Mom's and Robin's lastest medical events

You wouldn't think a broken wrist and knee surgery have much in common. But when it comes to The Twins (Mom and Robin), the eery similarities are readily apparent. Or if you want to just feel pain, take a look at some photos of the surgical event (warning: some are gory).
  1. Both were worried about something happening to their clothes before they were ready to leave the hospital and wanted to hold onto them.
  2. Both had a mean nurse.
  3. Both can't "ambulate" unattended and need supervision for most activities.
  4. Both can't use their right arms or feed themselves.
  5. Both were drugged beyond belief.
  6. Both have a groggy memory and recall about events.
  7. Both are very anxious to get better.
  8. Both have great meals prepared for them.
  9. Both have physical therapy daily and get chauffeured around.
  10. Both suffer from impaired judgment and think they are OK to do more than they can or should.
