Dove Award-winning artist Natalie Grant was hospitalized after taking a hard fall on a sidewalk that resulted in a bleeding kidney and a blood clot in her bladder.
“Moving Bella home from college didn’t end quite the way we planned,” Grant posted on social media.
“On Thursday night, after packing boxes and loading the car, we walked to dinner,” she continued. “And somewhere between the hotel and the restaurant, I tripped on a sidewalk and took a hard fall. I mean, very hard fall. Basically I WIPED OUT.”
Grant believed that she might have fractured a rib, but the injuries were more serious.
“What I thought might be a fractured rib turned into a hospital stay—a serious internal situation with a bleeding kidney, a blood clot in my bladder and surgery this morning to fix it all,” she said. “What in the world?!”
