I spent the night in the ER last night due to not taking care of myself. I got extremely dehydrated and was running a high fever. My friend drove me to the ER and they immediately hooked me up to IV’s and gave me a shot to bring down my temperature. I have been inhaling coffee and the doctor wants me to go down to 4 cups a month! Holy smokes! I had all the early signs of dehydration but didn’t recognize it. My legs had major cramps in them which I thought was from sleeping on the couch (the bed is lonely). I was irritable, and even got nasty with a good cyber-friend, so Carla, if you are reading this, I am SO very sorry. That was not me that sent that email- it was the sickness talking.

I have been home all day sleeping most of it and drinking lots of water. Mike doesn’t know and I don’t want him to- he has enough to worry about. My cats have been clustered around me all day and they know I was ill, and knew before I did that I wasn’t myself. I don’t go back to work till tomorrow night, and will go and see Mike tomorrow morning with hopefully news of his MRI results. I will be drinking water all day as I don’t want this to happen to me again- and again Carla, I do hope you will forgive me-
