My phone rings and it's Chloe. Silence and then a hang up. I call back and someone actually ANSWERS!!! A minute and 30 seconds go by with nothing on the other end and me saying whatever comes to my head. Then a hang up.
6:38pm
Phone rings--Chloe again. I had prepared some stuff to say to whoever was listening on the other end, but instead, it was Chloe in a really weak voice!!!! I was stunned beyond belief. I honestly thought I would never hear from her again. I could tell it was difficult for her to talk, and I had a difficult time understanding her. We spoke for almost 40 minutes. Here's what I was able to piece together.
She had an insulin overdose that did something serious to her after she left to see me on Saturday. She pulled over when she started feeling sick. I'm not sure what happened after that, but I do know she's recovering at a center in Pennsylvania. She was being treated at a hospital there.
Her brother is supposed to call me tonight to tell me what happened. I hope he does. I wanted to ask a zillion questions, but she could barely talk and I wanted her to rest. I'll call her again tomorrow.
I can't explain how much of a relief it is to at least know what happened. She assured me she's getting better, but I'll feel better myself if her brother tells me the same thing.
I realize this story sounds totally unbelievable, but why should I expect anything different. Relationships have never come easy for me, when they've come at all. I feel stupid for having published everything for the world to read, but at the time, I didn't think I would ever find out what happened.
I'll report back tomorrow on anything new.

Shane,
I hope you know what you're getting yourself into. I don't say that to discourage you at all because I am ruting for you all the way. It just sounds a little questionable when everything that could go bad does. I wish you luck, this could get interesting.
The rule for anonymous posters is you can't be anonymous. Please sign your name so we know who you are. I'll shut them down again. Don't test me! :)
Yeah, I wondered myself why everything seemed to be preventing us from meeting. It's either not meant to be or going to be really worth it.
Don't feel bad for what you posted. You only stated what happened and your concern for her. It is actually very sweet. I probably would have created a cartoon caracter of her and done some rude graphics to accompany my negative, ranting post of the situation. You're a much better man than I am.
I hope she gets better and that maybe this will make you guys even closer in the future. Only time, and your patience, will tell. ;-)
