2. You do take the Tums away from Fatamorgana, just to see if she gets better. Later that day, you find her lying on the bathroom floor, exhausted by toilet effort and her overall lack of calories. You notice her breathing is strange. What is this breathing like, and what do you do about it? (ASSUMING no other medical care is available – there has been an ice storm, say.)
A. She is inhaling only every 15 seconds, and you feed her some non-diet Coca-Cola in a cup because she is too weak to raise her head to drink.
B. Although not seeming in distress or turning funny colors in the face, she is breathing so infrequently that you call an ambulance.
C. She is breathing very rapidly. You give her a liter of bottled water, make her a big glass of Alka-Seltzer, and give her an emetic.
