Jo Beth was on top of a four-drawer filing cabinet, holding onto
the wooden molding with her left hand while she pressed a
poster to the wall with her head and pinned it with her right
hand  (Yes--This is why they pay teachers the big bucks).

Suddenly, although Jo Beth had been leaning into the wall, she
found herself falling away.  Down she crashed, landing HARD
back-first onto her wooden desk.  Oww!  She was lucky she
wasn't killed!  How could she have fallen when holding on?

Jo Beth continued to fall over occasionally.  She made light of
her "tripping"; her students just decided she had gotten more
clumsy than before.  

Along with the balance problems came a drop of her right foot,
and a terrible feeling over her entire body.  She would have to
interrupt lessons and sit down, very ill.   One afternoon, it
came on her so suddenly that she vomited in front of her class.

doctor?
Bird brain--Hah!  Good one.  See the
picture?  
There was nothing she could do.
 Down she'd go.
