She's Got Meningitis!
As Jules said tonight, it's just another thing to add to the list. It's not the serious strain, as it's affecting her meninges, not her blood, and isn't contagious. Phew! But it does explain her rather "rambling" nature the past few days.

She's ticking off the ailments at a fair old rate, then?
Mum & Dad are up in the Dales this week, but they'll attest - from both sides - how alarming meningitis is. Yes, it would certainly explain her talking gibberish. Mum did exactly the same thing, which fair freaked Dad & I out.
Of course, that was fourteen years ago. She's still talking gibberish, but apparently that's normal.
Mysterious package in the post to you...
