Over the weekend, Barbara Walters was attending a party at the British Ambassador's house when she fell on some stairs and ended up cutting her forehead. Apparently it was considered serious enough where Barbara was transported to the hospital for treatment and spent the past two nights there. Apparently she is feeling better, but doctors are being cautious with the 83 year old.
