No easy answer, unfortunately. Not a major heart attack, possibly a minor heart incident. No brain bleed on the CT, they can't do an MRI, but the kind of strokes an MRI would show are unlikely. So they're adjusting meds to try to calm her heart and lower her heart enzymes, and allowing her blood pressure to rise a bit to make sure there's sufficient flow to her brain. They seem to be bewildered about why she's not able to talk. So now I'm just in wait and see mode apparently. We left when she finally got to sleep. Praying for good news tomorrow.
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
