My drama

Wow, I see the whole drama as I read your story! Can not imagine how you must haVe felt!

So glad everything is OK!

After everything is ok now, you will one day be able to share your story with your LO. She will be verybproudnof her mommy!

Sounds very traumatic, can only imagine what you were imagining on the drive home. Glad it all turned out fine in the end. Things could have been much worst

Hope emily feels better soon

Oh my goodness, how scary especially not knowing what had happened.

Glad the gate is up etc. Shame your mom shouldn't feel bad though. These things happen.

We moved into a new place last weekend. There are still a few things that need to be done and because dh gets home late, we getting to it very slowly. 1 of the things are that our bedrooms door handle is broken off on the inside so if it closes, you can only open it from the outside. Other thing is the safety gate we bought was too small for the top of the stairs, so we took that back and hadnt hung the new one yet. Anyway, yesterday, my mom and emily were upstairs in her room and the housekeeper was busy in my en-suite, my mom leaves Emily in her room because she would need to pass my room to get to the stairs abd quickly runs to my room to tell the housekeeper something. while they are both in my room, the rooms door bangs clsed - they cant open it to get out and Emily is stuck alone on the outside of the room!!!!!!!! emily hears the bang, starts crying and cmes to see what is going on - she is now right infront of the staircase crying and no-one can get to her!!!!!!!! MY mom goes into panic and starts screaming for help on my rooms balcony and Emily screaming louder and louder outside the room. At this point all my mom can think of is that Emily is going to take a tumble down the stairs and that she still won't be able to get to her even then. After almost 30 minutes, someone eventually sees/hears my mom and they come to break the window downstairs to get into the house.

My mom has a breakdown when they eventually get her out of the room and give Emily to her. She calls me at work but she is crying so bad that I cannot hear what she is saying. So, obviously fearing the worst, I am screaming: "What happened, is Emily ok?" and my mom cannot answer me thats how bad she is crying. So I throw the phone down, grab my car keys, scream to a colleague that I need to go home and as I am running, I slip and fall and now I am crying uncontrollably because I have no idea what is going on at home!! They don't want me to drive because I am in a state so one of the guys go to get his car keys. It was probably 5 seconds but it felt too long for me, so I just ran to my car and drove myself. He followed me in a very fast sports car, and I somehow actually got away from him. I have no idea how fast I was driving, but I stopped at no traffic lights and drove on the wrong side of the road quite a bit!!!! I was never so glad to see my baby when I got home!!! When I saw the broken window I thought someone had broken in though........ She was VERY upset that she had cried for 30 minutes. So, we are all still very shaken up, mostly my mom and today Emily is sick sore throat, blocked nose, dry cough and running a fever

Needless to say, the door is now fixed and the gate is hung.
