Joanne and I have been in Mexico the past two weeks, so it fell to my daughter Liz to be "on call" for Eleanor. We have had a great string of healthy days the past several months, so we had hoped that the string of good luck would continue. Last weekend Eleanor called Liz and wanted to go to the emergency room. E had a bladder infection, so Liz took her to the hospital and wound up staying several hours with her while she had a sodium infusion. My sisters both tried to call while they were at the E.R.and were alarmed that they couldn't reach her. .
This week Liz went to Heartland to a soup supper with Eleanor. They were in line to get dinner when it was announced that a construction crew had broken a gas line at Heartland and they were evacuating the residents to the high school. Liz took Eleanor to Dairy Queen for a hamburger and then to her house to wait for the all clear. This time she called my sisters to tell them where mom was. Live and learn.
