Tough Day

Was worried about attending an end of the year party tonight because everyone would be drinking. Right when I arrived I received a call that I student form my site was in surgery and critical condition due to an accident that happened at school today.

I rushed to the hospital and waited with the parents, he is going to be there for a few weeks, but things look good.

I definitely felt like I needed a drink by the time I got home, but instead I logged on here after putting my kids to bed.

Say some prayers for this student if you will.

Thanks for being here.

I hope that things are getting better for you this evening--and I'm sorry about your student being hurt. Are you okay now?

I am doing okay, just worried. I am upstairs with my laptop and a book. I think sleep may be difficult tonight so I figured SR was a safe obsession and distraction. Thanks for thinking about me.

Yes, that sounds a really emotionally stressful day. Congrats on dealing with it well, that's another feather in your cap.

Good call. It's easy to dwell on difficult and bad things this early in recovery. I find reading here helps me relax and is part of my sleep routine.

Wishing you and your friend the best.
