Continuing on!


Ennis Montana Hospital





Our last morning in Yellowstone found Betty unable to function and sick to her stomach. I carried her to the truck, packed up and headed south to Jackson Hole via the Grand Tetons. Pretty drive with Betty sleeping the entire way. I stopped in Jackson and she tried to eat some soft ice cream, but could not keep it down. We headed to Driggs, Idaho where she rested for two more days in a hotel. We then headed North to Ennis Montana where I had planned a float trip on the Yellowstone river for our anniversary. She was still barley able to function so I took her to the hospital. I spent two days in a nice cabin, Betty spent two days in the hospital undergoing numerous tests. Apparently she had acute altitude sickness, which filled her lungs with fluid, preventing her from taking in enough oxygen. We left the hospital with an oxygen machine, five oxygen bottles and drugs to clear the fluid.
