Also, if you are on/or have parents that are on blood thinners, be extra cautious. I spoke to my mom, and she is careful about my dad's meds because he does fall (Parkinson's). My friend's mom was on blood thinners, so the chances of her getting through the injury were lowered.

This was (is) pretty shocking as her father was having some serious health probs that he was rebounding from. Her mom was in good health and just fell on the steps.

But kudos to Sen. Gillibrand, who hit a double and was as cute as a bug with her little ponytail and pink "uniform" shirt.  She eventually scored and was so excited!

I was at the game last night, played at a local park, and it was so cool to be that up close to people you see on TV all the time.  I could have literally reached out and touched Steny Hoyer and Nancy Pelosi several times last night, as they were spectating.  Dana Bash was calling the game and John King showed up later in the game and was standing literally 10 feet from me.

Jul 15th, 2009 | MADRID -- A Spanish woman who deceived a U.S. fertility clinic about her age and become the oldest woman to give birth has died at 69, leaving behind 2-year-old twins, newspapers reported Wednesday.

Maria del Carmen Bousada gave birth in December 2006 after telling a clinic in Los Angeles that she was 55, the facility's maximum age for single women receiving in-vitro fertilization. Guinness World Records said the 66-year-old was the oldest on record to give birth and the case ignited fierce debate over how much responsibility fertility clinics have over their patients.

According to Wikipedia, a 70-yr old Indian woman gave birth to twins in 2008; she and her husband wanted a male heir.
