Mind sharing what the card looks like now? Really curious to see all the effort you're putting in to it.

Put me down too Devolution.

Nice to see that she is recovering and hopefully quickly too. I was really worried for you both when this thread got posted.
 
Happy to hear she's gotten better crunched! Also all I can think about when reading through this thread is The Smith's song.
 
Although I don't have much of a reputation on this site, and have made practically no impact on the forum as a whole, I'd love to show my support in any way that I can.
Could my username be on the card, as well?

Edit: As for a color, orange or blue would be fine.
 
i'd be happy to join the card! if possible, put me in light blue, i guess.

and yeah, really hope everything will turn out well with your fiance, crunched!
 
Can I get on that card aswell too please? Just "Falcs" in purple would be good, thanks a lot Devo!
It's such a great idea. I'm sure it will mean a lot to her that even a large bunch of strangers on the internet who don't even know her are thinking of her and wishing her a fast recovery.
I'm really glad she seems to be recovering quite fast.
I hope I never have to see my wife in hospital like that. I honestly don't know how I would handle it. I'd probably just break down and weep continuously like a little school girl!
 
I just found this thread. My goodness, what a terrible series of events. I'm glad to hear things have gotten better. Feel free to add me to the card.

I'm praying for you and your fiancee, Crunched. I just got married 9 months ago and I can only imagine how difficult this must be for you.
 
I'm home again now. Didn't get much sleep last night, maybe an hour. I waited til 10am for her mom to replace me (the start of official visiting hours). She was able to stand today, and currently is sitting up in a chair. She is now able to use the restroom with help.

I told her before I left that I should have been there for her and that it was my job to protect her. She started crying and apologized for disappointing me. Breaks my heart that she thinks that.

I need to shower and clean myself up, maybe take a nap before going back. It's only been three days but it feels like weeks.
 
Hang in there! I can't put myself in your place, but if this happened to my fiancé I'd be terrified. I hope I don't have to live it. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Get some rest man. Glad to here she's continuing to get better, and time will eventually shift back to normal, just hang in there.

Stop feeling guilty, I know it's unintended subconsciously and you have the best intentions while doing so. However, she is pretty cognizant of the fact that you are feeling guilty and it is only making her feel worse.

You did nothing wrong in the situation, and truth be told she really doesn't need to see you beating yourself up emotionally right now.

You can feel guilty about this situation later after the both of you recovered.

I really do wish the best for both of you, and I am glad that she is recovering this quickly.

What's her rationale for "disappointing" you? Disappointed that you have to sit with her or that the wedding might be delayed?

That part broke my heart because it reminded me of my own wife who would say something similar.
 
I haven't been on Gaf in a few days and spent the last hour reading through this thread. I can't imagine what you've gone through and are still going through. I'm glad to hear things are getting better.

Hang in there. She's in my thoughts and prayers.

Devo: Is it too late to be added to the card? Green if you can.

Don't say stuff like that to her. It's not nice nor is it fair. You're making her feel guilty during a time when she is very sick. Not cool. Be supportive.

Rad.
 
Read the op yesterday and couldn't imagine if that was me. Very glad to hear that she seems to be making great progress. Hope it continues unrestrained.
 
So, in 3 days she went from near death to walking with assistance. Great progress, i'm glad that all worked out for the best.
 
So glad she's doing better, best of luck in the future! :)
Something similar happened to me last summer when my mum fell off her bike and was knocked unconscious, such a scary moment :(
You never forget stuff like that, but you come out stronger in the end!
 
I just caught this thread today. Wow. I can't even imagine....so glad everything seems to be working for the best Crunch :)

Devo, your the man for making that card! Please add my name on it in either purple or red, whatever you feel fits best.
 
Man I just saw this thread and my heart was wrenched instantly after reading the OP. I can't imagine what it must have been like to experience something like that. My thoughts go out to you and your fiance Crunched, although from the sounds of things, everything's getting better already.

Add me to the get well soon card as well Devo.
 
Wow, what an awful situation, but I'm glad she's improving and hope she continues to quickly. I'll be keeping her in my prayers. I'd also like to add that you seem to be handling this very well, Crunched.

Devo, if you could add me to the card I'd appreciate it. Very nice thing you're doing :)
 
Incredible how fast she is recovering. And no more guilt-tripping, crunched. I know that's not what you mean to do, but the both of you need to focus on moving forward with recovery.

I'd like to be on the card too, Devo. Green, please!
 
holy fuck dude. just imagining how yo feel right now is overwhelming. try to stay calm. we care for you. hope she heals properly and everything turns out ok.
