WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court says Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s left shoulder break is worse than was first thought, though the 63-year-old justice expects to be on the bench when the court hears its last six arguments of the term next week.

Is she on Obamacare? /s
A nasty fracture. I had two fractures in my right shoulder (but not the ball joint) from a fall a few days before Christmas 2016. No surgery was required but a full shoulder restraint was required for six-weeks. It requires assistance for everything except eating and writing (if left handed). I recovered and now have full motion but as a single man needed in-home help for dressing, washing, bathing, etc. It was very embarrassing to be treated as a complete invalid.
Though I disagree with her positions, I do wish her a speedy recovery.

Pshaw! ObamaCare is for the “little people.”
It sounds like she’s a brittle diabetic. (No pun intended). They usually don’t live to a ripe old age. A broken shoulder is much more complicated in the type of diabetic such as she is. She is 63 years old. A brittle diabetic’s lifespan is about 20 years less than normal. She obviously takes good care of her health, which is vital for brittles, but it wasn’t too long ago that she had an episode of low enough blood sugar that she passed out. I don’t agree with her politics, but she has achieved a lot for someone with her type of diabetes. It’s not unusual for brittles to have frequent hospitalizations. I pray she lives a full, rewarding life, but she will probably have to retire soon.
Venezuela needs judges... :-)
She doesn’t sound safe to be living by herself, if she is.
That fall she had was the second time in three months 911 has been called to her home. The first was for a low blood sugar.
Being in your mid 60’s and living alone can be the start of serious problems but when you’ve been diabetic for over 50 years it doesn’t make sense.
Maybe she can do her job from bed, like McCain ....
She should resign immediately.
she should write a tell all book about Obama and hire a live-in nurse and one who got with her in her book tour.

Finally, a post of compassion for a damned soul. Rock on, Flaming Conservative!
Could we try to be less nasty with these comments?
Sure she’s another dingbat liberal judge but that doesn’t make it okay to make such cruel remarks. She’s clearly unwell and needs care.
That’s what most of us are saying.
She needs to take care of herself, which involves stepping down as a judge.

Mass times Velocity = Momentum
She’s diabetic, which statistically shorten’s her life by about 20 years ... just sayin ...
