1. Last night around 9 pm, I got a knock on my door.
2. I answered it, to find 4 very handsome SSF policemen at my door.
3. Looks like the elderly lady down the hall was not answering her phone.
4. So her nephew, also a SSF policeman called the police to check up on her, and if she had fallen in the apt, or tub as she did on Sunday night, and to take her to his place.
5. So I went to the office got the apt key, and opened the door. The chain latch was latched, so I had to force the door open, breaking the molding.
6. She was responding, that she was in the tub, and needed a blanket.
7. They covered her, the tub was empty of water.
8. She normally bathes in the morning before breakfast.
9. So it seems she has been in the tub for 10 hrs?!?!!
The paramedics showed up (yes all calendar hunks). They got here out, checked her vital signs, everything seemed OK, except for dehydration
1. They took her to the local hospital to hydrate her.
2. I had noticed since last week, that her speech is slurred a bit.
3. She is so cute. A petite Japanese woman, 87 yrs old, never married. She moved here after the SF quake of 1989; her apt in the Marina was totaled. She is very very active with volunteer work, always on the go, and takes public transit most of the time!
4. On my first day of work, 4 yrs ago, she brought to my office, a cucumber sandwich that tasted just like the ones mom made (yum). A nice welcome.
5. She took George and I out for sushi, for Christmas last year
Strange thing is that I had a dream about her on Sunday night, the night she fell down in the tub. A friend took her to the Dr on Monday, so I assumed either she stayed with the friend, or maybe came home. I called here yesterday, assuming she may of gotten back home, to see how she was doing, but she did not answer (she normally screens her calls). I was so busy yesterday, I did not even think to go up and check on her, thinking her friend would
6. Oops. I feel bad. So I got a key made to keep in my apt, and will call her often from now on.

Such a nice neighbor. And i can't believe this ENTIRE passed summer i didn't have ONE cucumber sandwich. Usually i'll go thru at least a half dozen cukes , thinly sliced, soaked for a few mins in vinegar and water, and place on buttered bread with black pepper! YUMS! Nice post Mr. Caring SexFellow! ;) XoX

I'm sorry to say, it sounds like she may have had a stroke of some sort.
