Friend in serious car accident

My friend was involved in a serious car accident. Almost three weeks ago, she was riding in a cab that rear ended a stopped flatbed truck. I didn't find out for almost 11 days. Her cousin tried to call me, but I didn't recognize the number, so didn't answer. I called the hospital today and her cousin answered the phone. My friend has had three surgeries. She has two broken femurs and needed a skin graft. She has lacerations. At the present time, my friend is non verbal. I'm praying for her, for healing of her injuries, that she will walk again, and that she will be able to talk. I miss my friend.

Expected behavior

I am a grandmother! Our granddaughter was born on Sunday. My husband, son and I drove to the hospital to visit with our daughter, her husband and to hold the new baby. It was the right thing to do. I've come to realize that certain behavior is expected during a special time such as an engagement, wedding, pregnancy or birth. I expected congratulations and best wishes from a couple people that to date have remained silent. I don't know why but to feel better, I pretend. "We're happy for you. Congratulations.". Working about 15 days straight at the flower shop. Lots of associates are out.
