ORIGINAL: dcnovice I hate it when a friend is in the hospital and no one tells me. hugs DC...I feel for you... last year april a friend from work suffered a stroke...she had left our employer and despite working a lot in the house she used to work nobody bothered to tell me about it even when they knew we got on very well. In July I finally received a message from her at 5am when I got up for work, her assuming that I would know now that she has had a stroke...gosh...not that this message itself is shocking enough already, at that time of the days its even more shocking... So I told her that I did not know about it. I started to wonder how that could happen as we were in regular contact usually, that I did not realise it for so long either... But then...it got obvious. Her stroke happened in april and I was tied up in exam stress at that time until end of may...then I went to gran canaria with 2 disabled clients from work, followed by tenerife on my own the week after where on the first day my phone fell on the floor and the screen crashed inside...so I lost her number...I got back around 23/06 and by then it is not long anymore until she then contacted me beginning of april...so whilst I was shocked that I had lost contact with her, seing my life at that time I realised it can happen. And I was glad she did wonder why she did not hear from me anymore and got back to me as I have not had her number anymore since my phone went into repair... but I felt angry that nobody had told me, particular as I know a very good aromatherapist who would have potentially even benefitted her more if she could do some work on her arm in the hospital already instead of many months later in rehab. I paid her 5 sessions and at the end she felt movement again in her fingers...how she is at the moment I dont know as again, Uni is taking over my life, but I will meet up with her soon. I hope the reasons for your friend in hospital arent too unpleasant....
