life changing experience
So for those of you who didnt hear i had a life changing experience on friday january 6th. heres everything that happened. james, aaron, brittany, and i all went up to the mall to meet up with AT, AC*my cuzin*, their g/f's, dylan, kate, jarred, and some other girl i didnt really know, and jolly. well we were at the mall til it closed and they told us to leave cause it was closing. so we did and we decided to meet up behind the theater. we saw a sign that said "no loitering police enforced" and we decided it would be a good idea to leave so we all started getting back in our cars. james jumped on the back of my car and then jolly did and i told them to get off my car and i got in. they didnt get off so i backed out of the parking spot. i looked in my rear view mirror, didnt see anybody on my car so i started to pull out of the parking lot. thats when they jumped back onto my car without me knowing and i had to swerve around an SUV and when i did james and jolly fell off my car. james is fine but he's got scratches and jolly hit his head on the curb so i parked in the middle of the parking lot and i ran over there and we tried to get him to stay down. he kept wanting to get up and kept telling us to let go of him but we couldnt because he kept falling and it was better if he stayed down anyways. his ear was bleeding and he had a small cut on his forehead. also by what AT told me was that he had a pretty big cut on his back. Jolly was leaning on AT the whole time while the paramedics were there so he's really strong *emotionally*. jolly couldnt remember his name and things like that and he kept going in and out of consciousness. while we were out there the cops questioned all of us and got statements from us all of course and then they life flighted jolly out to the pensacola hospital. well then we started figuring about whats going to happen to me and my uncle said dont worry about jail time but im still nervous/scared. if jolly does pass away then 1 of 2 things could happen. the cops come to my house, handcuff me, read me my rights, and then take me to jail and my mom comes and bails me out or they call my mom and they tell her to bring me up there and she does all the formalities and stuff and i dont get put in the jail at all. if he lives then i'll just have fines to pay which dont bother me, i would much rather him live and me pay a lot of fines. i dont want jolly to pass away. saturday night my mom, sister, and i went to pensacola to see him and his mom. his mom was really nice and she said "dont beat your self up about it because its not your fault, you didnt force him to get on the car" and i told her about how james felt responsible and she said "tell him not to feel responsible because even if there was a line of people on the car it was his choice to get on". his mom was very nice to me and my mom and my sister. i went in and saw jolly and he didnt look great but... i just remember him the way he was at my cuzins birthday party. the doctors told his family that he had a 0 to 2% chance of living so they are going to do surgerys seeing as how his chances are so low they are willing to take the chance of doing another surgery to try and get him to live. if he does live he might have brain damage, nobody knows how much brain damage. all friday night when i get home i cried a lot because how would you feel if you were responsible for somebodys death? then it took everything for me not to cry when i went to go see him but my eyes did tear up. my mom, dad, sister, and jackie are all supportive of me and trying to help me out and everything. my dad knows how i feel because a long time ago when he was a kid he had a motorcycle and a kid had run across the street when he was driving down the road and my dad had hit and killed him. so he knows how i feel. well needless to say im worried about jolly and whats going to happen to me. on monday im only going til 3rd period because i cant miss my test in psychology. after third im leaving and we're going to wait and see if the state attorney makes a decision about what happens to me. supposadly they should do it on monday but who knows. well even though i doubt jollys parents are going to read this and maybe not even his friends but i feel terrible for what has happened and i hope jolly is ok. my life is changed for the better and worse. i will never make stupid decisions like that again in my life because now i know it can happen to anybody. unfortunately i will have the image of friday night stuck in my head for the rest of my life.
