Finally got Mom her second shot

After a hard day, the night.

Got her a lift from rehab ((x can happen, unlinked to shot one)) to the county second-shot site, and met up with her to show off her vaccine card and ID to the people there.

Everything was going fine, until she felt faint about 15 minutes after the shot, and the site EMS showed up.

She had low blood pressure. but they couldn't find anything else, so we talked them into letting her be dragged back to rehab ((instead of the emergency room)).

She called a bit ago, sounding much better.

1. Glad she's feeling better. Almost anything can cause feeling faint.

She might have been nervous, or hungry. Or maybe it's her reaction to stress.

I'm glad she got her second shot!

Two hours before she went for her shot, I got a call that a case had been found ((unsure if staff or a resident)) and protection procedures were being put into place.
