Home the same night

The Swedish ER gave her IV fluid for dehydration with pain and nausea meds, and finally calcium to offset a deficit they found in her labs. She started feeling better very quickly, and her BP started dropping back toward normal. While we were waiting for some of her test results to come back, Freddie kept K company, and Ken walked with me and Mandy to Smashburger, to get a bite to eat. The iPhone app "Around Me" was helpful in finding a place to eat, within walking distance, in that unfamiliar area. Interestingly enough, the lab results didn't show a high white cell count, so maybe that's resolved. They decided not to admit her into the hospital, and sent us home just before midnight. K said she felt better than she has in awhile. However, she started getting nauseous again over the weekend, and is mostly back to the same old routine now.
