Ginsberg hospitalized with rib fractures suffered after a fall.

^^ Uh-oh. A fall at her age is never a good thing. I just saw where this is not the first time she's fallen and broken some ribs. She's had cancer two times, heart disease, and I guess her overall health is a big problem.

I don't know if she has other health issues or not but I wonder about her tremors. Parkinson's, idiopathic or something else? That could absolutely effect her balance.

She's determined to stay on the SC as long as she possibly can, but those days may well be numbered. I used to hear about someone like her falling, and assumed that the fall was an isolated incident. The truth is we only hear about the falls that cause injuries such as broken hips and ribs, but the number of falls is usually quite a lot. Tremors are not good, and falls such as this are normally indications of a serious decline in health.
