An event that seemed minor at first turned a little ugly Saturday afternoon when Suzie's blood pressure began rising. Went over 200 around 5:30 and climbed as high as 217. Several attempts with different medications to bring the systolic down failed and doctors were about to move her to intensive care when, at 2:30 Sunday morning, they decided to try one more medicine. Her systolic fell to 190 by 3, to 150 by 3:30 and to 142 by 4, thus ending the crises. We thank God because the last thing she needs is to suffer a stroke!
