Boy, poor Mith!! She is doing okay, but she has lost her voice. COMPLETELY lost her voice. Two angels have been taking care of her today. They took her to the hospital this afternoon to have her throat looked at. The doctors said it was probably stress-related and something her weakened immune system couldn't fight off. They put her on some anti-viral medication and gave her some stuff to gargle. She is now resting in her hotel room.
The person who called me on Mith's behalf has read this forum but is not a member yet. I hesitate to use her real name, so let's just called her "Angel" for now. So Angel and MarinOhio are the 2 angels with her, and Angel was the one who called me. (Angel is friends with MarinOhio.) Angel said, "Don't worry, she's got 2 grandmas looking after her!" LOL That made me so happy to hear. Thank you guys! You have NO idea how happy that made me, Dilli and I'm sure everyone here to hear she's in such loving care! They got Mith a bunch of nutritious soft food to eat (like bananas and such) and are making sure she's eating it. She's also dealing with some mouth sores (again, stress-related) and that makes it difficult for her to eat.
Mith will hopefully be sleeping in in the morning and will be spending all of tomorrow afternoon at the Millenium watching the dropped dogs come in, etc. MarinOhio will be volunteering there during that time too, so Mith can call on her if she needs to.
Poor Mith, after everything she's been through and now she gets ill. She's going to need at least a month to recuperate when she gets home!
We love you Mith and we miss you in the forum bunches. Can't wait until you're back here with us, your Iditabuddies!
Thanks to John, MarinOhio, "Angel", Cat, Lance and all the others who have been so kind and attentive to Mith! You guys rock!!!
