I have cancelled my trip to Phoenix as it is much more important for me to be with her than a football game. It looks like she may be released tomorrow and then she will stay with me until her parents get here. They are snow birds who live in Florida in the winter and have a summer home here. Her mother is deathly afraid of flying so they will drive home and that will take a couple days.
I am meeting with her SIL later today to go over to her house to pick up a few things and survey the damage.
spindle92 I'll be sending good and healing thoughts your friend's way. For her body, mind, and spirit. You're a great friend for being there for her. How terrifying an ordeal.
Thank you! Things are moving along nicely. The HR recruiter is supposed to call me tomorrow...as in Saturday...so they're apparently not wasting any time! I'm trying not to get ahead of myself and plan my resignation speech just yet, but I'm so over this job!
OMG you guys, I just got back from her house and holy shit. There are two huge holes in the drywall from where a body was obviously thrown against it. 2 lamps are broken, a huge mirror is shatter, there are ceramic knick knack things that were on her one table that are just destroyed. So much destruction.
I am sick to my stomach thinking how much of these items were used against her and struck her. She is lucky she was not hurt more.
The "good news" if there is any in this, is that when I talked to her on the phone a little bit ago, she asked me to smuggle booze into the hospital for her tonight. I clearly am not but that shows me she has some of her wit still in tact.
Thank you again for the good vibes. She really needs them.
