UPDATE on Phyllis
Just received a text from Phyllis asking me to update. Her blood pressure is 99/50 and she is slightly dehydrated. Nothing bad enough to keep her overnight. They did treat her for verigo she says, so unless there is some other disease I don't know about (entirely possible), she meant vertigo. She is tired and going to bed.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!


Yes, she must have meant "vertigo" (i.e. dizziness - "room spinning around") .. unless she meant "vitiligo", which is a hair-loss disorder, IIRC ..

Phyllis, you better make it to the Dallas conference!

Thanks for the update, GEORGE. It's no wonder PHYLLIS got dehydrated-she works nearly as much as YOU do! I hope she learned something from this experience-hope we all did-we ALL don't do all as well as we should, I bet-esp on the weekends (it can't be just ME)..I worry about PHYLLIS..she works TOO much and doesn't take enough time for herself..getting my "mommy finger" out now...

btw, I noticed Phyllis was posting about how she was rushing around getting her outdoor grill ready for a big meal, just a couple of hours before she headed to the ER. I have to wonder now if the outdoor heat + the heat of working with the grill might have contributed to her dehydration ..

Just glad she's going to be O.K. and with us Friday & Sat ..
