CINCINNATI (WKRC) — A local woman is expressing her gratitude to a medical team that helped her regain mobility after a serious fall. Mary Carol Melton recently shared her story to emphasize the importance of immediate orthopedic care following an accident at a major event in the Tri-State area.
“So my husband and I decided pretty much last minute that we wanted to go down to Blink,” Melton said. “We’ve been before and we love it; it’s great for Cincinnati.

Melton described how the incident unfolded quickly, resulting in her falling onto the street and injuring her right hip. “She bumped me off the curb and it all happened so fast and my husband said he could still see me going down and I landed on the street on my right hip and I knew immediately when they tried to get me up that something was seriously wrong,” she said…
