Trip to the ER

Squirt's blood pressure has been extremely high over the last several weeks, the Home Health nurse and her doc's office told her she was in stroke territory and told her to go to the ER. Finally at 8pm she decided that was a wise decision and we drove to the hospital. She was hooked up to an IV, got an EKG, blood work, chest X-ray. Blood pressure was 180/120, not good.

It was determined to be pleurisy, but the blood pressure needs to be addressed and she sees her doc this morning.

As the doc was asking her some questions about her medical history, she forgot to tell him about her enlarged heart 20 years ago so I piped up saying, "Squirt..." And proceeded to tell about it. The doc turned to Kristi and said "Squirt, can I call you that. " To which Squirt replied, only if you'll call her Miss U.

I checked out the IV bag - Hospira!!! Plus made in Austin.
Rick saved her life.
