Thank you, Nina. We think it was Salmonella from a chicken salad sandwich. OMG
- they should bottle that stuff and turn it into a weapon of mass destruction!
If it hadn't been for the hotel staff being on the ball and getting the
paramedics there and brining gatorade, water, soft drinks, and checking on me
numerous times (and they didn't charge for any of those things) - I truly think
I would have died of dehydration. I am going to write that hotel the nicest
letter I can. It was the Embassy Suites Hotels and I am here to tell you that I
am a loyal patron after the way they took care of me. Once I knocked the phone
off the hook by accident in my sleep -- they were there in no time making sure
I was ok.
My company took care of me too and didn't make me take any leave for that time
I was so sick. I am very fortunate. It's bad enough being violently ill...but
in an unfamiliar city, alone, with no cats - it was just almost more than I
could bear.
This was the first time I had spent the night away from the kitties in over 4
years. When I finally got home, I didn't even unpack - I just went to bed. All
the babies piled up there with me - and my Phelix got right in his place on my
arm and every now and again he would make blinky eyes at me and pat my face
with his paw. It's good to be loved.

Subject: Elizabeth - glad you're feeling better
I'm glad to hear you are feeling better Elizabeth. It sounds like you were
hit with a very nasty case of food poisoning to have lost 12 lbs in 3 days! To
be out of town on top of it, you poor thing! What a lousy diet plan you've come
up with!
