Q: Need Help Badly

Ok I got a call from my best friend tonight at work, she was crying and told me that he house had just been broken into and she had an altercation with the intruder, so I left work immediatly and went to her apartment to get her. When I got there she was beaten up pretty badly and she said that he raped her, so I took her to the emergency room but when we got there she refused to let the doctor exam her, they only thing she let him do was give her an ultrasound to make sure the baby is ok. I have her over here right now and she is sleeping, but I don't know what to do, does anyone have an idea as to what I can do to help? Should I hug her or stay at arms length, I am just so hurt for her. Please help me!

My god i'm so sorry. Has she alerted the police? I don't know what to say just do whatever you feel is right considering the way your friend is acting. If it appears that she doesnt want to be touched just let her be but otherwise I would try to comfort her...I have no idea honestly...I've never been in that situation. Keep her safe and hope her and her baby and you and yours are ok.

We talked on-line. You know my advice. And since you can't make this all go away for her. Just be there for her. This is a very horrible expierence for anyone to go through and just being there for her will help a lot!

Omg thats soo frightening I could never imagine going through that oh my god. Did she talk to the police?? Oh my god i'm like in shock I cant belive it its horible that we have to live in a world where people r that ludacris and just have no feelings at all twards other people. I'm truly sorry that happened to your friend she is in my prayers and all I can say for you to do is just be there for her being raped is a very emotional thing to go through I had a friend who was raped and she had some real issues not only did she have to go through that but he gave her an std that she cant get rid of and could pass on to her children. Again i'm so sorry

Hey, last night when I was talking to jeni, she woke up crying and wanted to talk. So we sat in my room and talked for about 3 hours about what happened. Turns out she did know the guy, it is her baby's daddy's best friend. So he even knew that she was 22 1/2 weeks pregnant and he just didn't care. We went back to the hospital at 2:30 this morning and she let the doc examine her and even though she had taken a shower, there was still a little bit of evidence. She filed a poilice report as well. I stayed here at my house with her today, we are going to just hang out. The doctor said the baby was fine and that she was going to be fine, but that her cheek bone was broken and that she had a cracked rib, which is why it hurts when the baby kicks her. But she is going to be fine, we are gonna talk more later and watch movies and stuff, I am trying to make her feel better, but she is so scared, which I completely understand. Thank you very very very much for all of your help girls especially stacie, chanda and jen!

Wow her baby daddys best friend. Is she still with her baby daddy? I think that she should tell him what happened if she hasnt already , if they are still together. Did she tell the police that she knew who it was. Just keep her calm and safe, and warm. I am sure that she is feeling 20 different emotions right now. I am here for you always and forever you know that!! Good luck darling, im here!!
