P and I drive north to visit Mom. It’s a beautiful day and we sit outside and chat for awhile until the breeze makes her chilly and we head inside. She is definitely weaker and less attentive, but we manage to engage her in conversation and make a connection. When we move inside I begin to feel odd, and fearing an allergic reaction we depart earlier than planned. Long story short, night finds me in the ER with a sudden onset of v.high fever and other distressing symptoms. I’m admitted to the hospital shortly after midnight.
