I just experienced the most traumatic day of my life so far.
My wife passed out and went into a seizure while at the store with her mother. So grandma called the ambulance and we arrived right on time to get the baby and let her mom ride in the ambulance with her to the hospital. She was unresponsive at one point, she was slurring words, her hands were stuck in a morphed position and she said she couldn't see multiple times.
Eventually they discovered that her glucose levels were around 40 and she was severely dehydrated. They got her on multiple iv's and got her levels back to normal and the symptoms subsided pretty quickly around 1:30ish. They did a CT scan and blood tests, the main culprit, apparently, was a walking pneumonia diagnosis. We still don't understand how she was so dehydrated (she drinks 2 gallons of distilled water everyday, maybe because the minerals are sapped out of it?) but she is feeling significantly better now and back home with the kids.
I've never dealt with a death in my family yet and always wonderes how I would handle it. Got a slight taste of that today.
Didn't have the chance to ask y'all for prayers, but somehow our entire church found out and started a prayer group.
