My friend Shelia got a severe case of dehydration! We're NYC'rs but she was a south & middiish Texan too when younger. She went to Vegas for concerts. Maaaybe the heat, plus dryness got to her.
Add in pneumonia (!), and diverticulitis(!); and geeebbzzz. Was waiting to be admitted; was in ER.
At least she went before it got worse!
TIA!
