I have managed to pop on and just quickly browse but not able to post as its been a terrible 24 hours!
Yesterday morning at work, some fencing workmen who are currently working at my bosses phoned into work as they couldnt rouse my boss, so they could get into his garden to carry on working.
They were worried, we werent as hes apt to sleeping in abit these days! Tried calling him but no answer to his phone, his mobile was still here at work.
Decided to go down to his house, 1 mile away from work as have a key to get through the gate into the garden and see if anything was wrong! not really believing it would. By this time the workers had climbed over the wall and had been looking into his house and knocked the door but no response.
When I got there I too went round all the windows peering in (its a bungalow) could see his bed was unmade, but couldnt see him anywhere. Banged the door, went round again. NOTHING! Went back to the lads, told them, really puzzled and WORRIED but this time. Decided to go round once more, and this time when I looked to my HORROR I saw him lying on kitchen floor, half in/half out the next door. Ashen and not moving.
You can imagine how awful that was. (I think I am still in shock from it!)
I thank god the workmen were there, as I got them to break the glass on the front door so could get in. Call the ambulance and police etc. It was just dreadful.
The paramedics stablised him at scene and took him off to A&E. I had to then get my hubby to come down to the house, with a another workman (who fortunately was doing some work at the business) to come down so could secure the door.
I then shot off to the hospital, while they sorted that out, and then try to contact his family members.
Eventually we managed to get in touch with them and they came rushing up. His girls and I are like sisters as we are all about the same age so it was very emotional meeting under the worst of circumstances.
Prognosis at this moment in time in not good.
He has had some kind of bleed in his brain. Hes in ICU. On all kinds of equipment and we all have to wait and see now.
I have worked for my boss over 25 years so quite close to him, and its been an awful shock. I dont think you are ever prepared for this things like this when they happen, unless you are trained.
You cant help but things the worst when something like this happens, but am so wishing with all my heart he makes a recovery...to least to give me a scolding for having had his door bashed in at home.
My heads all over the place right now. :cry::cry::cry::cry:
