Kathie Lee Gifford recently went through hospitalization after she suffered from a fall while going through recovery from her hip replacement surgery. The television personality told the media she had suffered from a fall which led to her fracturing her pelvis in two places. This was right in the middle of her recovery from her hip replacement surgery.
She said the incident happened when she overextended herself while moving books for a book signing event in Nashville. The next day, when she went to answer the door for her friends, she simply tripped.
“It didn’t take much, because I was weak in that spot,” Gifford said of her fall. “The next thing you know, I am back in the hospital with a fractured pelvis, the front and the back. That’s more painful than anything I went through with the hip. The pelvis is unbelievably painful.”
“You think you know your body and the next thing you know, your body changes when you get older,” the former anchor for the Today show said. “As much as I don’t wanna think about it, I am.”
Earlier this month, Gifford return to her old haunt at the Today show and had a sit down with 59-year-old Hoda Kotb. She said in the interview that she was currently recovering from her hip replacement surgery as she promoted her new novel, Herod and Mary: The True Story of the Tyrant King and the Mother of the Risen Savior.
She revealed that before her surgery, Gifford was in “agonizing pain” and had “one of the worst hips” her doctor had ever seen. She said she had had her hip replacement surgery a month ago.
