Just Pass Me By

Ever have one of those days, when it starts out almost good. My husband and I on Saturday we go to church, both of us work with the children. My husband works with the preteen group, and I do children worship for the 3 to 7 year old. I enjoy doing this. We both normally have class in the afternoon. I have Hebrew he has advance study.
We came home for a little while, and decided later we go and get some grocery we needed and grab something to eat before bible study. I think my husband had one of those days he should have never got out of bed. We had a free coupon for a local restaurant, so we used that, Saturdays every other week is out date night but this Saturday wasn’t our date night. We got home, and we both noticed a lady. I thought she looked very worried or stressed, but really didn’t think much. My husband was parking and hit my van.
Oh no not good, well his car was the only one damaged. Well there is no need to report it, because fixing his back lights anyways needed to be done. Plus he my husband and lets face it, it’s not that important. The lady started walking toward my husband and I. My husband Spoke up because I started to work on getting our grocery on the balcony. My husband asked her if everything was okay. She said No.
I am trained in both First aid and CPR, so I have to respond to emergencies if no one there who can. My husband asked her what happened, she told us someone fall off the balcony on the 2nd floor. Oh No, Not good this is worst then him hitting my van. Maybe my husband need computer memory for his car so it stops when he going to hit someone.
She had told me the guys wife was trying to move him. Right away I said, I gotta go they can’t move him, I am trained in First aid anyone over there trained. She said no, and that they where waiting for the ambulance. Okay in my building it may be at least a 10 minute away, but it was quicker then that. I ran back there, and one of the ladies at the party down stairs was holding his hand telling him he couldn’t move, his wife was on standing on the side. They spoke limited English, and his wife was the one moving him. I decided to leave the woman stay with him holding his hand because she was having a calming effect. I stayed there till the Police got there. He had landed feet first.
Now I do wonder how in the world he managed that one but honest I have to say when they said he fall off the balcony from the 2nd floor I was worried about what I would be walking into. Normally when people fall from a higher height it can be very bad. I was a little worried things wouldn’t be this good. I told them, this is good because he hadn’t lost conscientiousness, and hadn’t hit his head. His worst injury seemed to be maybe he ankle was broken. I hope that he heals quickly and I am glad that the people at the party knew what to do even with out training.
