Why??
Why do things always seem to go so bad when they seem like they couldn't get any worse. I know I'm not directly affected by this, but I'm still affected.Ok, here's the story. I went to church last night at a new church b/c Josh was preaching there to kick off their revival, so I decided to go support him. I had this really bad feeling that Stacey would call. I usually know when he's gonna call b/c I just get those feelings, but his time I got this feeling that he was gonna call and something was gonna be wrong. And was I right. I got out of service and I saw that he called me twice. He never calls me twice, and he called me twice within about 10 minutes and he left me a voice mail. In the voice mail it sounded like he was about to cry and like he really needed to call.
So, before I even get in the car, I call him and I get his answering machine and I left a message. Then, I got home and called about 4 more times b/c I was really worried about him. He never gets upset.
Well, around 10:00 he calls. He sounded so horrid. I don't think I have ever heard him so messed up. He asked me if I remembered D.H. and I said, "Yes. Isn't that your best friend?" And he said, "Yes. He got in a wreck last night. It was really bad." I thought he was gonna cry telling me that. My heart broke for him. He said that D split his chin open, broke ribs, broke some an arm, and shattered his femur. I talked to my cousin afterwards and she said they had to airflight him out.
The weekend that I need to go home, I can't. My orginal plan was to go this weekend, but my dad said that if I use his gas card for me to wait until next weekend so I won't rush and I will have a long weekend. But I really needed to go this weekend and be there for Stacey.
He ended up crying the more he talked about it and he said that he wished that it was him that it happened to instead of D. And his family isn't really being there for him like they need to be. Whenever he talks about it, they turn it around and say things like, "See, you shouldn't do stuff like that or the same thing will happen to you." Stacey doesn't need to hear something like that, he needs to hear that they are there for him and that everything is going to work out ok. Out of all of the people that he knows, including his girlfirend (I use that term loosely) and family, he called me. The person that he known the least amount of time, but feels the most comfortable with. I am so glad that God has blessed me with that relationship. I don't know what we would have done this summer had it not been for each other.
I told him no matter what time he needed to talk, even if it was at 2:37 in the morning, he could still call me. And I meant it. I am here for him. He really someone that will listen to him and not judge him and just be there for him. And I'm glad that I can be that person. I have gotten so close to him that it's unbelieveable that we haven't known each other our whole lives the way we act around each other. We have known each other almost 3 months and I feel like I have known him my entire life. I can tell him everything. There is nothing that I can't tell him and feel comfortable around him. There is one thing that I need to work on, though, or he is gonna kill me. lol...I don't hardly eat infront of him. I am very pick who I eat infront of, but I have gotten so much better about it.
Well, I'm gonna go. I'm tired and I have a chance to sleep before I go to class at 1. I'll update later and let everyone know how D and Stacey are doing! Please keep us in your prayers.

sorry to hear about your friend's friend, but he's lucky to have you to talk to, and you are excellent to be non-judgemental. *huggles*
