I was ready to go home. I just wanted to be in my own bed. I wanted to be around my own things. I needed that. 

The doctors came in. Connor and Will have been taking good care of me. They are great doctors and friends. Connor looked at me " hey Gabby... how's it going?" I looked " good..." Matt asked " when can she go home.." Connor answered " a couple more days... your looking good... your rib's are heeling well..." I asked " when can I come back here...?" Connor added " you need to take some time... probably a couple months.." I nodded " thanks.." 

I knew there was more to my condition. I needed to work on all aspects of everything. Dr. Charles stopped by. He looked at me " Gabby... how are things?" I looked at him " fine.." I looked at Matt, and he knew I needed time. Matt looked at me " I'm going to go get some coffee... ok.." I nodded " yeah sure.." Dr. Charles sat next to me " how are you really...?" I looked at him " dealing with things.... i'm fine..." He looked at me " what you went through was traumatic.... you can feel anything.." I looked at him " I hate this... I don't feel safe... I worry that he'll come back." He looked at me " your attacker.." I nodded " I know the police have him.. but it works me up.." He looked at me " Gabby... this is traumatic for you... and you may be experiencing some PTSD.." I nodded " yeah.." He looked at me       " you know i'm here.. If you want you can come see me... I can help you through this...." I nodded " That would be good.."
