Story out of Norwich, New York:
The boy, Chadwick DePew, normally plays games on his tablet, but last week he used it to communicate with his father while his mother, Alice DePew, was having complications with her diabetes.

"I was talking to my mom on the cell phone and she heard me starting to slur my speech and I started feeling a little sleepy," Alice said.
