MONROE - A visit in August to her daughter, Adina Ness, became a tragedy for 72-year-old Mimi, from Romania. She fell on a slippery floor Aug. 21 and suffered two pelvic fractures, rib fractures and a right shoulder dislocation and separation.After a two-week hospital stay, Mimi remained in Adina's home, working to regain enough strength and function to return to her homeland. She returned to Romania last week, but an increased dose of pain medication to help through the long trip caused several stomach ulcers.
