Shaking Like a Salt Shaker

The temperature was running up yesterday, and at 6, it hit 100.9. We called dad's doctor, and came into the highly unsanitary emergency room. Dad was readmitted into the hospital and around 1am, blood and antibiotics were finally on their way back down the central line.

I arrived this morning to a shivering/shaking dad, with the blood pressure spiking. The doctor had earlier said his sodium levels were low, so we got him to start downing the packets of salt. Sure enough, whether it was prayer, salt, or the tylenol, it settled down pretty quickly, and the blood pressure is back down to an elevated 152/53, check out the time series below.

Dad is back in the saddle, just ate a normal breakfast (with some extra salt), and hopefully will take a nap soon. I put his phone on airplane mode, the "real" world I think was getting to him, and the phone was ringing off the hook. Sorry, call me if you need anything. Thanks! Steven
