What a day

The day started well.... We woke up, went to Trish's outpatient appt and all was well there. We started walking out and ran into the wife of a patient Trish knew from 5C - we talked to her for a while, than as we started to turn around to walk out - Trish got dizzy and passed out into my arms.

She was out for only 10-15 seconds. When she came to she started vommitting and feeling nauseous. In the meantime I screamed for help and the Hopkins STAT team came running out of the walls. We spent from about 11am onward in the ER. They decided to re-admit her just a little while ago (around 4-5pm). Trish was redmitted to 5A. Where I know everyone by name and Trish and every nurse is an old friend. Ruth is her nurse tonight. Knowing she is there I might just sleep well tonight.

At the initial exam the doctor mentioned that they would likely keep Trish in just a day or two to insure she was stable. Some of us think despite her deceivingly good looks, she wasn't yet really ready to be released yesterday (Tuesday)....I think today proved that. Keep praying. I need to sleep.
