A Friend Hurting
What does anyone do when they have a friend that gets hurt? What can you say? I have a close friend that has a daughter-in-law (to be) in the hospital. I don’t know if I should take off from work to be with them or not.
She got hit broadsided on her side while going to see the doctor(she is pregnant). I have no idea really what the right thing is to do. I can only think that I need to be with her to comfort her. I don’t know what to do.
I guess that I will keep this updated… as to what decision I make.
I have to go to be with her just in case…
The whole thing was like in slow motion….I wanted my friend there but after seeing everybody was ok I didn’t see the point to make such a long drive and then having to turn right around to go back was pointless. When the emotion and the racing thoughts came to me it was OVERWHELMING I had so much inside me and what ifs ? How come? What am I doin? All the past came to me in a rage! The thing that came across the most is I almost lost my son,granddaughter,future daughter inlaw and grandchild ! My heart sank and I felt so much guilt and questioning myself to why ? Couldn’t I been closer, why do I live so far away ? Why do I love my job? Why do I care for my friends ? Why do I wait for him to come around ? Why? So much going thru my mind ? Yes, I wanted my friend there but all that mattered is my family was ok and I drove them home safely!!!
