Damn heels! Jenna Fischer breaks her back

Sorry people...I must have seemed drunk.
I meant, "Actually, breaking anything in your back is always serious." Sheez...more coffee needed here :).

Actually, braking anything in your back is laways serious. I broke my back in two places when I fell down a wet, stone staircase. I was told 6-8 weeks 'full recovery', BUT a few years later at 32, I have had two back surgeries (for fusion) with one more in six months...because the balance and strength were compromised, even though I exercised. Jenna, stay on top of your situation to avoid this possibility :).

You scared the crap out of me.

Seriously, great lead in, horrible premise.

I hope this doesn't effect her tv/movie schedule, as I know that she's filming a movie and has a few others in the works.

What's weird for me is that I have a cousin that interns at InStyle and she got to meet her just hours before her accident...

According to a news story, Fischer has four broken bones in her lower back, but is expected to make a full recovery in four to six weeks.

So it isn't quite as bad as it sounded, which is good, because it sounded pretty bad.

I wondered why she wasn't on *Conan* as scheduled. I certainly hope "broke" means "chipped" and that her future mobility isn't threatened.

How awful. Isn't this, in some weird way, a very 'Pam Beesly' moment though? Besides the hospitalization, it's kind of adorable.

I'm going to impress her with my compassion.

>fell down some stairs on Monday as she was trying to maneuver in very high heels.

THAT old chestnut. Did she also "run in to a door"?

I wondering if this is going to hurt the filming of her new movie-Walking Hard- OR are they finished filming? I'm not sure sure. Anyone?
