This morning Julie kept trying to get ahold of her friend, Rosie. She didn't answer her cell, her landline, or her text messages. Finally, we went over there. When we drove up we knew that something was wrong as her car was in the driveway, she hadn't been out of the house, and both screen doors were locked.
Fortunately, Rosie's next door neighbor, Joe Patrick, was home. He had a key to the screen doors. We went in and found Rosie on the living room floor. It looked as though she had fallen against the door and bruised her face. She was moving and breathing, but was otherwise unresponsive.
We decided not to try and move her and called 911. The paramedics made good time coming, especially considering that we've had about six inches of snow and all of the roads are snow-covered and slippery. Rosie seemed to be physically responsive, she squeezed the medics hand and straightened her leg in response to a request from one of the firemen, but I didn't hear her talk.
They took her to Oakwood Hospital. Julie just (1510) went to the hospital to see what she could find out.
Glenn and Dianne were supposed to come over tonight, but we cancelled that. I also decided to postpone my colonoscopy which was scheduled for Friday, as we're not sure what Rosie's situation will bring.
