Joe Blob, 4? years is a client of yours, living at 4010 Elwood Aye. in Buffalo NY. He is the manager of a plumbing and heating company with 14 employees. Last December 11, on a typical cold and snowy day, Joe was walking up the steps to Buffalo City Hall to pay his school taxes and he slipped on the ice and fell, falling down 6 concrete steps and although he tried to brace himself, he landed hard. After he tried to get up, he realized that he was hurt and called for help. Francis Brown happened to be nearby, so she called for an ambulance, which came and transported Joe to Mercy Hospital. At the emergency room, Joe was examined and diagnosed to haye a fractured femur (broken leg) and a 3rd degree should sprain {separated shoulder). The total recovery time for those injuries is 3 weeks
