Today i remembered how much one thing can change in the matter of a second.
We were talking, laughing, just normal. Seconds later, nothing is funny anymore. And i hear her franticly cry through my phone. At first i thought it was a joke, and then she came through my phone again, scared, hurt. "I got in an accident, help me". And i ran out the door, no shoes, hair a mess. Laura and i had no idea where to find her, and she wasnt picking up her phone anymore. We went down 151 and we were about to go home and i saw the lights. We pull up and i see her car, and my heart just stops, im shaking, and i get out the car and run towards the ambulance. A firemen yelled at me, told me to get out of the road, so i went to a police officer, who was nicer, and he said "she called you? She fractured her leg and shes on her way to falmout hospital". The first person i think of to call is carrie, and im shaking like crazy, people are looking at me and tears are rushing down my face. Laura brought me back home and i met carrie and we went to falmouth hospital, only to find out that she was never there and they brought her to cape cod hospital instead. We run out of gas, get gas, go back to my house and take 2 cars up to the hospital. Elise carrie stephanie and i.We were all worried, but had a few laughs, just because last we heard, she had only fractured her ankle and was going to be fine. No. We get to the hospital and see her, her leg is broken, and she has internal bleeding with a chance of going into cartiac arrest, and they have to fly her to mass general. We all break down.
Worry not. She called us later on, to let us know she is going to be ok. Just a giant scare. One person just being fine one moment, and the next they're just not.
I wonder what life would be like without pain? Probably boring, but nonetheless, pain-free.
I love you Kandyce.
And i Love elliott james. Just because his voice was the only thing that could calm me today.
