THIRTY-ONE DAYS IN HOSPITAL: As well as a grapefruit-sized abscess caused by a "blood-building" drug Briggs was (in my opinion from what I later read on the manufacturer's and the FDA's sites) misprescribed, she developed oral thrush, and her mouth and throat were so swollen that she had trouble swallowing even water. We had to request that she be
given nutrition intravenously, and then once she could begin eating again, she was so tired she actually fell asleep, banana in hand, when I went
out of the room for a minute.
