I really wish that they did tell you because I know that you would blog a bout it. When I read the post you wrote the day before, I totally thought that I’d soon be reading about whatever happened in People magazine. Please be sure to let us know what happened, if they ever decide to let the cat out of the bag.

In my work I almost never get to hear the end of the story. if it were a friend, it would be hard not to want to know, but I agree. Knowing she’s safe is enough. Just being a friend is all she needs now. If she wants you to know, she will tell you.

~ Your last post had me very scared. I’m glad to know she is okay, but even I am nosy enough to want to know what the outcome was.
~ You are right, that she has a good support community that they didn’t gossip about her.

BUT! I don’t know if it is necessarily as bad as “gossip.” Especially if you know her pretty well. I think it’s very human to want to know about people’s lives.

This post reminded me of something: One day, I was sitting at a stoplight RIGHT outside my old house when there was a car accident in front of me. When nobody else got out of their cars, I decided to go check on the people. One of the vehicles was a foreign lady whose two kids had been riding in the back of her car without seatbelts. By the time I got her calmed down enough to understand that her son was stuck under the seat (his head was stuck, he was unresponsive), a crowd had gathered around and some people had decided that the solution was to pull him out of the car. I stopped them, because it was pretty obvious that he could have a spinal injury and help was on the way. But I think about that boy a lot to this day. I want to know what happened to him, along with a thousand other questions. But I would totally be satisfied with just knowing if he was okay. Just that little bit would help me get over that vision that I see so often. So…you’re right. That’s all we really need. Whether or not we ‘deserve’ to hear more isn’t the issue - just what we need to know.

Well, I had to click your link to find out what you were talking about, so I am with you on the curiosity thing. It would be killing me!! But it sounds like you were a very good neighbor and friend. That’s about all you can do.

You and Brian did everything right and so did her family and friends. It is so hard not to know how it ended, or why it happened, but in this day and age we have got to respect privacy.

The main thing is she’s ok and you tried to help. I’d have felt exactly the same as you, and would probably have gone thought the same thought processes. You did all the right things and I’m sure she’s grateful.

Like a lot of the others, I would want to know the rest of the story. But at least you know she is ok. You did your part & that good will come back to you.

Wow, I was away, and this had kept me wondering the whole time…I’m glad she is fine.

And I admire you for your courage not to press matters further…I only risk involvement if I know I’m needed, not necessarily wanted…so you did a good job.

She is fine, it ends there…next time if ever she needs help, well, you can still be there (or another helpful neighbor) to make sure she gets fine…then it will end there again…
