Thanks again for all the good wishes. Allison is home and is feeling more or less normal again; the pain is mostly gone, but she's still supposed to take it fairly easy for a while. She's giving herself injections (I believe the drug is called Cumodin), which she'll be on for the foreseeable future. But that seems a small price to pay to get something akin to peace of mind after such an experience.
My mom is recovering pretty well. In fact, I'm at the old homestead this weekend, just to give her a hand around the place. Things look good for a full recovery.
My wife still has more health problems than the law allows. If she were a horse...
But we're hanging in there.
