Rabbi, the other night my mother jumped onto my single bed and gave me a hug(Just before i was going to sleep)....I moved her slightly and teetered her over the edge of the bed but had no intention of throwing her off... As she was falling I tried to stop her but me and her ended up falling with me landing on her... I know this all sounds like a comedy sketch but I'm very concerned because I think she may have been bruised from the incident and I know bruising ones parents is a terrible sin... Whats your opinion ?

If it was a mistake and nothing was intentional, you have nothing to worry about
