MotherBang Goes Boom
August 15, 2007 on 2:51 pm | In PeaceBanging Around | Ouch, ya’ll! Me mama took a bad spill last night at the theatre, tripping over a stupid piece of scenery that should have been marked with glo-tape or blocked by an usher.
She fell hard and is terribly bruised up. She’s at the doctor right now to see if anything is broken, but your prayers are welcome.
Poor Mommy! I’m glad I’m here to help her get dressed and stuff.
She is such a good sport. When she was finally able to get up (she can’t put any weight on her right arm) she bowed to the crowd and said, “Would you like to see that again?” And then today when we worried whether or not her arm was broken, she said without missing a beat, “If it is, we can have a cast party!”
[Update 8/16: MotherBang’s left arm is brokedy-broke! It is covered with enormous black bruises, and there’s a little gouge in her ankle. All have been photographed for the lawyers. She is still being a very wonderful sport, though although most extremely ouchy. — PB]

If she’s an employee of the theater, that accident is WAY compensable. Otherwise, it’s less certain, but it is quite likely that the theater’s insurance company will pay her bills, FWIW.
