Freaking Out

Freaking out tonight and that is putting it mildly.


My sister and her 4 children were in an accident today in a Jet boat. 


All the kids are ok although 2 were taken to hospital for observation and have been released with instructions to be further watched for concussion. My sister on the other hand is in surgery at the moment, 12.25am, (my time) after receiving a compound fracture to her wrist. 


Apparently the boat his a submerged log or something like that and everyone on the boat was thrown around. Of the 12 passengers at least 6 were taken to hospital. 


So I'm not able to sleep as I wait for that phone call to let me know she is ok. Last time she had an anaesthetic was when we were both kids and were having our tonsils out and she was quite sick from the aneasthetic :( So I sit and worry and wait. Knowing how useless that is because worry doesn't do anything except upset me!!


I feel pretty useless. I would love to be able to go down and help her out for a bit BUT our circumstances dictate that I remain here and try and earn enough money to pay the rent. 


BIG SAD FACE :(
