This was the day I transported her down to Mesa to her usual ER room, there. She awoke with no appetite. I fed her nothing. The only pills she took were her iron and her vitamin C. I did get her to drink some orange juice about an hour after awaking, but other than that, she refused everything else, even ham and eggs, which she normally doesn't refuse. I didn't take her blood pressure because, frankly, I had other things on my mind, like the fact that she could not seem to keep her right side, from the shoulder down, up. It took me awhile, that day, to make the decision to take her down to the Mesa ER around 1400, after calling her PCP and explaining to him that I had taken her to the Prescott ER on Friday and telling him exactly what they'd done, or, rather, didn't do. Mainly, the problem was that Mom didn't want to go and would periodically try to hold herself upright, insisting that she was perfectly capable of doing so but was just "tired", but she just couldn't. So, I finally won this disagreement.
