Kathie Lee Gifford, 70, hospitalized for over a week after falling and fracturing her pelvis amid hip replacement surgery recovery
As a seasoned admirer of Kathie Lee Gifford, I must say her resilience and grace in the face of adversity never cease to amaze me. At 70 years old, she’s not just a TV host; she’s a testament to the indomitable human spirit.
Kathie Lee Gifford was admitted to the hospital following a fall, as she was recovering from her hip replacement operation.
The 70-year-old television presenter shared with PEOPLE that she had broken her pelvis in two spots following a trip and fall at her residence.
After having a total hip replacement surgery about two months back, Gifford stayed in the hospital for more than a week to receive and perform physical therapy.
She said the fractures were ‘unbelievably painful’ and called it a ‘humbling experience.’
Yesterday, just a day before her unfortunate incident, I found myself exhausted, having moved an entire library of 300 books all by myself. “Weakened” doesn’t quite capture the toll it took on me, but I guess that’s the phrase to use!
‘It’s my own fault,’ the former Today show host remarked.
The next day, Gifford ‘just tripped’ while trying to quickly get to her front door.
She explained to the media outlet on Tuesday, “I didn’t require much effort, as I was already vulnerable in that area. Before I knew it, I found myself back in the hospital with a broken pelvis, both the front and the back.”
1. “What I’m experiencing now is even more agonizing than my hip ordeal. Incredibly, my pelvis is excruciatingly painful. Nonetheless, here I stand.”
Gifford said that her lengthy hospital stay was her choice because ‘I don’t trust myself.’
She expressed that even though one may believe they understand their physical self, over time, changes occur in our bodies due to aging. Regardless of her reluctance, this is a reality she finds herself facing.
But Gifford isn’t letting her latest health scare get her down.
She mentioned to PEOPLE that everyone else is enjoying summer, but she isn’t. However, she’s fine with that since she plans to visit her small farm soon and relax by dipping her feet into the salt pool there.
God seems to be suggesting that I need to take a break. I’ve been going at a fast pace all this while. In essence, He’s saying, “You’ve sown countless roses in life; now, take some time to enjoy their fragrance.”
