Even with proper medical attention things can suddenly go south. One
of my favorite authors wrote the following:
"The world is a peculiar place. Tottery old ladies, people you
wouldn't trust to navigate a grocery cart, are heading two-ton cars in
your direction at speeds of seventy miles per hour.  Our lives depend
on strangers.  So much lacks logic or a proper sequence." - from
"Morgan's Passing" - Anne Tyler.
