firsthand

my mom slipped in the bathroom and broke her arm.  she underwent an operation wherein metal plates were used to connect the bones together and she's scheduled to start therapy soon.

she was asking my sister who two years ago also underwent therapy for a fractured arm about the facilities, the procedures, parking, etc., etc.

my sister was unsure about her answers saying she doesn't clearly remember so i kept on butting in to give definite answers.

my mom then turns to me and asks, 'were you with her then?'

me:  'of course!  i was the one driving her and accompanying her during therapy.  why would i butt in if i were not around?'
