Hopefully you have already called 911
Maybe you can get off your butt and go help them.
Why the hell are you asking us? Call 911, fool!

why are you on the computer instead of helping your grandmother up?
you should not worry unless your grandpa is dead already, then she is talking to dead people while on the floor, so I would worry
Call the 911! now ! call the paramedics.
Call 911 and tell them you need "lift assistance"
Seriously? Call 911 already and don't move her, k.
Well, not now! If she's talking to grandpa, she will be fine, with no thanks to you. :)
she needs a life alert neclace thing!
Yes you should be worried.
Tell Granpa that it's not funny or safe to kick her walker out from in front of her.

Tell Granpa you will pinch his nipples if he does it again.
Help her up...geez! :)
Oh dear! *sighs* well you know what you have to do now.......*hands you a scythe*
Yeah you should be worried, old people are fragile. She could be seriously injured.
My Grandma fell before and couldn't get up, my dad helped her and she was o.k., I'm not sure why your grandma fell but I hope she will be o.k., my Grandma slipped on her porch, she had a few bruises but nothing serious.
well get her *** up...
yea u should be helping he right now .......make her soup and make sure she dosent have very bad bruses....and yes be worried
Call 911 - she could have a broken hip. Whatever you do, do not move her in any way in case something is broken. She will probably need an exam and a hip x-ray at the ER.

Any time an old person falls and cannot get up by themselves it means they are getting more frail and helpless and will need to rely on help from family members, neighbors, and friends.

Common reasons for being unable to get up include weakness, confusion, overweight, and balance problems.
you yahoo this is not a place to google
no need to worry, i'm sure she will be fine. occasionally older people tend to fall over.
she may needto go to hospital for a checkup to make sure she has not broken any bones, as older people tend to have weaker bones.

but this is normal for an elderly person. so try not to worry.
she might have broken a hip (seriously) or sprained something. older people tend to break/sprain bones easier.
you should pick her up you dum-dum but most likely she will be fine
Yes, there is a cause for concern. An aging person is quite prone to fractures especially the hip. Is your granny in pain? If she is, please send for medical help, calling an ambulance.
