1. Shit.

2. Get well RBG...we need you more than ever.

Karma hates me....just when I had a single day of breathing a tiny bit easier with retaking the House, this could lead to a necessary retirement and a 3rd Trump Justice selection.

I can't take much more...

5. Yeah, well, who could have predicted that?

What a nightmare.

6. I just heard that on the local news

I’m sick, worried. But will send prayers good well wishes & hugs (gentle ones as her ribs are broken)
Whatever it takes for that awesome women to get back on that bench.

8. Try not to worry DU friends!

My friend's mother took a similar fall with far worse injuries! She has been in a nursing home and is getting out soon. She is 88 years old.

I think Justice Ginsburg will recover.

Take care Justice Ginsburg! We the People are rooting for a fast full recovery!

9. My 95 year old aunt broke her hip in a fall and was back on her feet and independent in months.

Another aunt broke six ribs in a fall at 93 with no ill effects beyond what anyone would have. RBG is another tough old broad so I expect her to bounce back from this.
