aftermath
Reading back through the journal notes and the crazy feelings that is stirs, it seems like a dream. We met our friends that came with us on Sunday for brunch. We all felt the same, numb, and changed in some way. We were quiet as we spoke, ate very little. We tried to joke about it, but the words didn’t come. We were different and so close to one another.
We all talked to others we knew, about what happened. They all thought it was funny. They thought we all were strapped in at the chest, like all the other rides, until we told them the truth, then their eyes popped from their eyes. They can’t believe, nor will they ever. Were all not trying to be heroes or tragedy victims here? We don’t want total sympathy. All we want is to let people know, that even though we were total die hard freaks, it can happen. It was good to hear from everyone though, thanks=
We found some newspaper clippings from the associated press. The spokesperson from the park totally fabricated the whole thing. She said we were only on the ride for 20 minutes, lie. We were on over 40 minutes. See, 20 minutes is actually healthy for you to hang upside down. They have gravity bars for that, so the park seemed to be in good standards. She also said the police arrive right on the spot, yeah right. Did you ever see a cop run? They rushed a child to the hospital complaining of asthma. They forgot to mention she was 29 and hallucinating, and hyperventilating.
What was must scary about her press statements were, that the emergency circuitry was working properly= meaning the leg lock. They took down our numbers and they never called to see if we were alright. We still have a Q-Bot machine (the one that took the reservation) and we did get a call from them yesterday. “WHERE’S OUR Q-BOT?” when we explained why we never dropped it back to the office, they were really nice. They wished us well and told us not to worry. They seemed like the only humans who worked there. Thank you=for being considerate.
Well after all the doctor visits, chiropractors, and trauma therapists, not to mention all the drugs and sedatives, we are well.
I can’t wait until our lawyer gives them a call…….its too bad all the CEO’s could not get their just deserts, if I could have it, they would have to go through the same ordeal.
