I'm so sorry this happened to you. It sounds very frightening. I had a similar experience once when I was experiencing spread and things were getting worse and worse every day (a couple of years ago now)...and it was very scary both for me and my mom who was with me at the time.

These things happen...but thankfully not often. It's not your fault and you shouldn't feel embarrassed at all.

Take care of yourself and I'm glad that up until this happened that you had a really nice day.
