Help! My Mom Fell and I Don’t Know What to Do

Hey everyone,

I really need some advice right now. I just got a message from my mom that said, “Cześć, córeczko, proszę przyjedź do mnie, gdyż spadłam. Pomóż mi,” which means “Hi, daughter, please come to me because I fell. Help me.” I’m totally freaking out and don’t know what to do next.

First off, I don’t live super close to her, so it’s not like I can just pop over in a few minutes. I’m about an hour away. I called her right after getting the message, but she didn’t pick up, which is making me even more anxious.

Nathan, Brian, Billy, Arianna, Mia, Penelope—anyone—what should I do? Should I call an ambulance for her? Should I try to get in touch with a neighbor who might be closer? I’m really worried because she lives alone and I don’t want her to be hurt and alone for too long.

Also, what should I say to her when I finally get through? I don’t want to make her more scared or stressed out than she probably already is. Any tips on how to stay calm and handle this situation would be super helpful.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me. I’m really at a loss here and could use all the help I can get.
