It has taken me over an hour to learn how to manuever to this site.
First, thank you for being concerned about Kristen. I was able to read a few messages, but again, trying to maneuver around this site. I was called over to the house early this morning 4:25am to be exact. My wife, currently ex, had explained to me that Kristen became dizzy and passed out, lost consciousness, and was taken to the ER, she was soon air lifted to another hospital. We later learned that she had taken all of her medications and consumed liquor at the same time. She is at Mt. St Mary's in California, still in a coma. Her note that she left in front of her computer, reads this way "please get in contact with a Psychological Babble Board on the internet and tell those people that I am very sorry that I couldn't be everything to all people and that I love them and care about them". So there it is. I read a note here that had said something concerning she is ok? She isn't ok, and we do not know if she will be. She is still in a coma. The doctors have her on a ventilator, and as of this moment, we do not know how long this will sustain. The doctors made this comment today, "Kristen has a very good chance of coming out of this, as she mixed such non-potent substances". So we are indeed hopeful, but shocked at the same breath. I am writing this from my laptop as we are sitting in the hospital. We have been here most of the morning and all day. I also read a note, a few, actually about the credibility of what has happened and how some don't believe it. Also, a note about wanting attention. We are quite offended at the fact that anyone would think that a person would say such a statement and lie about that statement.
Although Kristen is "too smart to do something stupid" she was hinting and crying out for help as it stated in her letter to us. I posted her email yesterday in case someone, somewhere could relay to us if something had happened to cause this, did she talk to anyone?, did she show signs out of the unusual? We are looking for answers and in the meantime, staying by her side and the next few days will be spent doing just that. If anything brings an ex wife and an ex husband together it is when their child suffers enough to harm themselves. As said before, we are searching for answers not only here on this computer, her emails, but other sources indeed. We have been busy all day, in hopes of getting her the help she needs when and if she comes out of this horrible nightmare. Please be understanding and know she would never lie about something like this. You all sound like a good bunch of folks.God Bless.
