Health Care

Today was an eventful day but not the good kind.  My daughter got up too quickly in the morning from bed and ended up fainting.  After a lot of fluids and questions and tests, she is fine.  It was determined that basically her blood pressure drops more than it should upon rising and in some people it can result in fainting.  It's fairly common and was told to eat more in the morning and maybe even increase her salt take a little. The biggest problem was that she hit her head on the way down and ended up with a mild concussion.

Tonight I extremely grateful for our health care system and for the prompt and thorough care my girl received today.
