Well, a few days ago, i think the 2nd night she was in the hospital, they were going to try and do some tests on her, but her blood pressure was too high, so they wanted to bring it down. they brought it down too low, lost her blood pressure entirely, and almost had to shock her before it magically came back up. the next day, she was on morphine all day so she was completely out of it.

they've ruled out anything to do with her heart, but they still don't have much of a clue what's going on. she can't really walk right now, doesn't have much strength or energy, but she's still as ornery as ever, which means she's at least feeling decent. right now she seems stable, they're just trying to figure out what the tightness/pain in her chest is all about.

she'll be in the hospital for at least 2-3 more days while they run various tests, things to do with her upper GI tract, her esophagus, etc.

thanks to those who send kind words, and those who have put up with hanging around me the last few days, it's been nice to get my mind elsewhere for a few hours at a time.
