I don't know what just happened...

Maybe her DH will check her email, though, to let people know she's ok. He wouldn't check here.

I have a hard time believing based on my interactions with Niobe here on the board that she'd be uncomfortable receiving a quick phone call because the community was worried about her.

Maybe it's just me.

I am a totally private person, yet if I disappeared, I would welcome the effort of WBTD to locate me.

Crazy idea - can someone call the hospital and ask to speak with 'Jaime.....shoot, the pen smeared and I can't make out her last name.'

If she's that private, she probably didn't put her name in the directory if she was admitted to the hospital. I know I didn't any time I went in this pregnancy b/c I didn't want random people that I knew coming in to visit me. From what they told me, if I didn't agree to be in that directory, if someone called to ask about me, they were not even allowed to tell them that I was IN the hospital.

Don't worry "Jaime" no last name would not fly with a hospital operator.

Lots of hospitals in SF too.

If I posted the OP and then vanished, and someone from here called me up, and I got all HOW DAAAARE YOU CALL ME! I'M A PRIVATE PERSON! y'all can feel free to call me a series of expletives. It'd be justified. In other words: I can't imagine her being bent out of shape because a mess of people give a crap about her after she posts something as worrying as that. In other words v2: I wish the person that had the # would just freaking call already, because frankly I think it's stupid not to. A card in the mail? Seriously??

I do still very much hope everything's OK...but if she comes back all, "Hey...oh, right....yeah, everything's cool. Sorry, I've just been busy with my book club" I'm going to cuss a lot.

Yes I was thinking that and keeping it to myself since yesterday!

As I see it either one of two things are going on...

Either the situation is such that she is dealing with something significant which is keeping her from getting online in which case trying to push our way in to find out what's going could be an intrusion...

or

The situation is such that she's fine and just hasn't gotten around to posting in which case there's nothing for us to be concerned with...

I'd like to know what's going on just as much as the next person but really...all we can/should do imo...is hold out good thoughts and wait.

We're the family in the waiting room...and all we can do is keep checking our watches and hope that someone who knows what's going on will show up soon to let us in on it.

I will continue to keep Niobe in my thoughts this weekend.

I hope everything's okay. It's not like her to be gone so long, and coming as it does after that post doesn't give me a good feeling.
