Wow kuifje75 !!
About ten years ago, I was best friend with Deaf couple for few years. That night, my younger son and I were played the snow slide at their back yard. It was really dark when I picked my son up from the snow because he was afraid to be alone.
I did not realize, the ice was under the snow. Good enough, I slipped and pop out of my knee cap and hit on the ice spot when I was picked my son up. I was hardly breathing due to extremely pain with my knee. My son walked over my chest when I was laying on the snow. My friends and ex husband saw me laying down on the snow, they picked me up because I can't walk at all due to my knee broke.
Went to the emergency room with my best friend, Betty until 2 a.m. due to xray, doctor, blah blah... She was so worried about me. I can see how much she was cherish about me.
I had to seen a specialist bone dr next day to do surgery immediately cuz my knee was fluid with crack my bone cap. I was overwhelmed because my two boys were very young at 7 and 8 years old. My ex husband was not really support me that much. He was only WANT my friend's money for lawsuit against them due to injury accidently in their propery.
I was not thinking about the legal and money at all because I was focus on my knee painful and worried about my two boys.
Few days later, the insurance company man came over my work with unexpectly. He asked me all questions what kind of shoes did I wear, did I know about the ice was under the snow, why did I pick my son up for, why did we play the snow slide at that night with dark, etc.. blah blahhh...
The deaf couple approached me at my home. WHY DID YOU LOOK FOR MY MONEY FOR ?? Do not ever visit or see us again !! Please leave us hell alone !! Your husband is very greedy, he is BASTARD !! I can't stand your husband !!
I was outbrust crying and hurt inside very badly. I was not looking for their money lawsuit for my knee injury.
I only got their money to coverage for the physical therpay and surgery expense. I do NOT need their money for lawsuit from their house.
I signed paper because I do not want their money to be lawsuit. The couple stopped by to apologize me for insult me.
I forgave them. Our friendship are NOT the same as usually we were used to be going out and some fun, share with children, etc...
I miss this our old time friendship !
I saw them last fall at Deaf Expo. They did hug and ask me how I was doing. Then said see you around. They never call or email me at all.
Money issues can be HURTFUL the friendship !!!
What asshole :madfawk: of my ex husband !! He is very greedy about the money than friendship !! He destroyed my friendship with Betty and Marty!
