Oh Vrae, I am so sorry this happened to you. I know you and your husband must've been terrified. I understand how you feel, to a point. I come from a family of fainters, my mom, her sister, my cousins and some of my siblings, faint often and without warning. I am not near as bad as my mom and one of my sisters, but I have fainted a lot and most of the time it comes without warning. I have scared my husband many times, but he is used to it now...in fact, he knows to immediately get a cold washcloth and put it on my forehead. Fortunately, I have not dropped in public and I imagine that had to be terrifying and you should not feel embarrassed. Like the others said, you did not cause this.

You did the right thing in talking to your family about it, now if it does happen and your kids are there they will not be as shocked and surprised and scared. I do hope that you do talk with your doctor soon about this to rule out any other causes.

Glad you had a great date with your husband before this happened. Take care of yourself and keep us poted.

Hugs,
Nanc
