. . . get checked out right away.

If you don’t want to call an ambulance, for a few bucks you can call Uber or Lyft. Most times they can be there in less than 10 minutes, even rural. If we lived closer, I would drive you to the hospital and stay with you as advocate to be sure they took good care of you.

Right now it’s time to focus on you. Please take care of you. And please bring us up to date on how you’re doing.

In the meantime, I’m with you in spirit, and all of us in your DU family will keep you updated on the Hands Off! protests. Plus you can stream the action when the timing is better for you.

We need you.
Much love and hugs.
