New Wow, may have even been less fun then mine
My dad came home from the hospital Tuesday, after major surgery. We found him downstairs Thursday afternoon staring at the ceiling and unable to speak or react coherently.

It turned out to be just his blood sugar crashing, and he recovered as soon as the EMTs pumped some sugar water into him. But it was very scary for a while.

New get a glucogun
(spelling?) Available by prescription, it allows you to administer a concentrated dose of sugar water to a person in need. Even though they must be replaced after being used , they're way cheaper than paying for a visit by the paramedics.

"Chicago to my mind was the only place to be. ... I above all liked the city because it was filled with people all a-bustle, and the clatter of hooves and carriages, and with delivery wagons and drays and peddlers and the boom and clank of freight trains. And when those black clouds came sailing in from the west, pouring thunderstorms upon us so that you couldn't hear the cries or curses of humankind, I liked that best of all. Chicago could stand up to the worst God had to offer. I understood why it was built--a place for trade, of course, with railroads and ships and so on, but mostly to give all of us a magnitude of defiance that is not provided by one house on the plains. And the plains is where those storms come from." -- E.L. Doctorow
