RBG is lucky she did not puncture a lung after breaking three ribs.
That’s usually fatal.
That she felt discomfort and did not seek medical care til the next day was also very foolish.
Probably better for the country that she delayed it.
She didn’t break three Ribs. If she did, she would still be hospitalized.
Most likely she bruised them. I did in my mid 50’s and it hurt like hell for weeks. Either she is one tough old bird or the whole story is pure BS.
