ambulance come bring Marissa to the hospital that's why she'll get all better doctors subsequently determined that Marissa's collapse was caused by a combination of dehydration lack of food and a bad reaction to cold medication I'll go see that I had to put him through that especially after I heard call I should have been more reliable and taking my medicine with food if I could tell Jack and saying home how much I love him and how much he means to me and I could never say thank you know what he did when Jeff was three and a half four years old I had told him that if ever there was a problem that he could call 9-1-1 and they would come and bring him help but we had not talked about dialing 9-1-1 for quite a long time so for him to remember that I was very proud I took care of her a little my brother and my sister that's why Murph is all better and I'm chic than caming back and we've been playing Oh
