Hello Everyone,
Well by now you will all know that Pippa has pulled through. Thank you for all your well wishes and support. It has been just the worst time. I was sick with exhaustion and fear waiting for Pippa to come out of theatre. When those ambos told me how serious her injuries were on the way to the hospital I really thought my own heart was about to stop.
All I could do was hold my baby's hand and keep talking to her, willing her to survive. As I watched Pippa's lifeless body it was so hard to remain positive and strong.
When I got the news that Pippa would be okay I was just overwhelmed with happiness. Going from the painful feelings of losing her to the elation I felt when I found out she would make a full recovery was like being on a massive rollercoaster.
Brad was at the hospital practically the whole time. I have to admit that his hand touching mine and being so close to me made my heart jump a few times, and I really started to believe something good may come out of this horrible accident.
It was difficult to see Mr Stewart throughout all of this. I know he was just as concerned for Pippa's welfare as I was but I was just so angry at him for getting behind the wheel of the ute while I had left him responsible for my baby. The fear of losing Pippa and then the anguish of Mr Stewart, the one person I have trusted my whole life, causing me so such pain, it was just heart-wrenching. I really don't know how I can forgive him for putting us through all of this? Maybe one day I will. But right now it's so hard to even look at him. All I can think is thank god Pippa is going to be okay.
There was some good news this week, Geoff got picked to play for the city football team. Tony arranged for a city footy selector to watch him play. It was a bit touch and go apparently. At first Geoff didn't know whether he wanted to play for a number of reasons but Tony managed to persuade him in the end. He didn't play so well in the first half because Pop wasn't there to watch him! Tony knew what to do and raced off to get Pop which did the trick. Geoff played amazingly well after that and was picked for the team, which we're all really happy about.
I hope Rachel is okay. These hospital walls have ears. A new intern called Lewis is causing quite a bit of fuss. Apparently Rachel is smitten with him, but Sam is very much against Rachel pursuing anything with him. She doesn't trust him at all I've heard. I wonder what he's done to get Sam offside? She's very suspicious of him.
Martha and Jonah are becoming close. This is a surprise. I'm just wondering how she can trust Jonah after all that's happened? I'm really not sure what she's thinking. She's had such bad luck with men, I think she should steer well clear, anyway that's just my opinion.
The week ended tragically unfortunately. Poor Geoff and Annie's Pop passed away and they are just devastated. They loved him very much. He bought them up on the farm like they were his own children. Now they are left to fend for themselves. We are all rallying around to give them support at this time. I just feel for little Annie, she is just the sweetest child. At least she has Geoff to look after her, but that is also a lot of responsibility for a young guy to shoulder as well. They are good kids, it's such a shame they have had to go through so much at such a young age.
Keep them in your thoughts, they need a lot of love and support at this time.
I'm off to see Pip in hospital. I can't sleep at home while she's in there. I can't wait for her to be back home with me.
Love, Sally.
