Background
On a trip in May 2019 to visit her sister and her family (nephews, nieces and their children) my wife slipped on a hillock at a public park in Munich, Germany. Her fall was due to wearing shoes with slippery soles. She fell on her right shoulder.
Consequences
She had sharp pain in her shoulder. Physical therapy in Munich brought some relief. In the meantime she came back to the US. While visiting a friend in Benicia at the end of July, she again felt intense pain during the night. This made her get back early to the Bay Area and see her orthopedic doctor. He ordered an MRI which showed a rotator cuff injury. It was obvious that a surgery was necessary, which was planned for the 3rd September.
