Things I Hate

To help you breath. People with fractured ribs tend breath shallow to avoid pain and as result, are at a risk of developing atelectasis or worse, collapsing their lung. Unless you're comfortable that your breathing is fine, I'd suggest you ask your PCP to get a you an incentive spirometer. I think you can get them at pharmacies without a script, but not 100% certain.

Will more fiber keep them from trying to open the door every 30 secs?

More fiber will get you out of there in 30 seconds.

I like Downton Abbey.

I've never seen it but it's been on PBS for quite awhile. I didn't want to even try it since I wouldn't know what's going on.

Grantchester is a good show too.
