She was able to get around...slowly...with a good deal of pain (which is expected for 7-10 day). Friday morning she woke up and was just acting 'off'. To try to shorten the full version, she passed out while she was making coffee. Then she was talking gibberish and not understanding what I was saying to her.  I was fortunately able to catch her and lower her to the floor. Had to have her transported to the ER. After spending many hours in the ER...as is usually the case...all tests came back normal. They said the most likely cause was that she was dehydrated. After speaking with her, I found out she hadn't eaten for 16 hours, so the dehydration explanation seems pretty feasible. They actually gave her a sandwich and some snacks in the ER and I could see the difference after 15-20 minutes. So we got home at about 4:00 yesterday. All seems pretty good this morning, I mean, other than the post-op pain. But even that she says had subsided a bit. 

So all seems good after a pretty scary few hours yesterday.  

Freaked me the [BLEEP] out.

Sorry, don't really have many friends out here and I think I just needed to vent.
