from a really old* story of mine. It'll probably never get rewritten, but I still jot down ideas and think about the characters a lot, especially Onika. She will always be a part of me.

be able to. so relieved with these positive developments!

face and jaw are still wired together but she's a darn quick writer and can also text now. I was surprised with a message from her this morning before I'd even left home. She isn't quite on the other side of the hill yet and will have to re-learn how to eat and walk. But it's looking like she'll...

thanks to the doctors and surgeons that she's come so far in healing. She's her old self again and ready to get out, although she has a long ways to go before that happens. But rehab may begin sooner than expected. I spent a while with her today. She won't be able to talk for some time as her...

the nurses allow. Only immediate family has been permitted, so I pretended to be her cousin before. I doubt her nurse bought it though. But I'm not sure they'll let it slide again. I'll try though.

starting to turn the corner for the better again. The doctors plan to wake her in the coming days. Hopefully there has been no brain damage. At this point, i know nothing more and have been doing my best not to dwell on it much. I will of course visit once she's awake and aware again, granted...

And this is me goofing off in the bottom tier of my single-player world's workshop.

needs and feelings aside and be there for her. I know what it's like to go through life-altering situations alone or at least mostly. I also know how much someone's mere presence can get us through another day. So even if being present is all I can do, I will as much as possible.

endangering lives and something I cannot forgive. If any of my friends ever do such a thing, you will no longer be my friend. Lastly to anyone who may be concerned about how I'm doing in this, I'm definitely not okay. This will stay with me forever. But it isn't about me. I have to put my own...

don't know for sure, but sounds like they're not even hospitalized anymore. Should be the other way around. Thankfully my friend's family is gonna make all they can to ensure that person never ruin someone's life again. Knowing you're under the influence and driving anyway is willingly...

But she's still a friend and has been most of my life. unlike others who I thought were closer, she was here for me when it really counted lately. I probably wouldn't even be here if not for her. This tragedy is unfair and disturbing.The driver of the truck that hit her was confirmed drunk. I...

want to live. I think the pain is mostly speaking for her, because she's a fighter. Hopefully in time will come some relief and a better prognosis. But I had no idea what to say to her besides reassuring her that I and many others will stick by her. We aren't super close...kinda too different....

...She's had many surgeries already with many more planned. Although she can't talk, she is awake in between. I got the okay to visit so I'm planning to see her this weekend and as much as possible afterwards.
