Yet more bad news!
Jess and I made plans twice last week to garden together. We at least had to meet so I could give her the CD of photos of the things that the grant she got us, so she could pass the photos on to our funders. She is always so hard to get ahold of that I didn't think it odd that she never answered her land line, and her cell phone was turned off this weekend.Well, sometime on Saturday, her housemates heard a big thump as she fell out of her loft bed. When they went into her room, they found her twitching (and unconcious, I guess) on the floor. She had apparently broken a blood vessel in-between her skull and her brain- ie, she has a bad concussion! She has been semi-conscious and has been moving around a bit in bed, even with a neck brace on, so thankfully she is not in too bad a condition.
I guess she'll be transferred to another hospital sooner or later, and held for a week or more, for physical therapy and readjusting to eating solid food (it's now been 2 days since she has eaten).
Her parents came to town, and friends have also been with her at the hospital. She will probably be moved out of Highland tomorrow.
