85 year old woman takes diet pills

....causing ER visit for shortness of breath.

She at first described it as a "medication problem" she was having and then fessed up that she'd been taking some diet pills. Most of our residents are on heart medications among other things. This lady doesn't even fit into my definition of "fat". She's very tall, maybe 5'10", and if I had to guess, maybe 170 or 180 pounds.

I hope that's not me at that age, still fretting about the size of my body. I hope I have grandchildren and kitty cats and a full life to fret about instead.

Poor woman.
