I am super mega sad! My friend just got in a car accident and is in really bad shape. I am really scared that I will lose her. Is there anything I can do to help?'

Hey, girl. I'm really sorry to hear about your friend's car accident. Accidents are always hard to deal with, especially when they involve loved ones and others that are close to you. I really hope that your friend is okay and safe.

I know you're really afraid of what will become of her and also that you might lose her, but this is one of those times in your life where you need to be super brave. You need to show your friend and her family the best side of you that you can. Be confident, supportive and caring for your friend and her family.

Ask your friend's family if they need help with anything, whether it's helping to fundraise for hospital fees, covering overnight shifts for your friend, helping to housesit while the family is at the hospital or even just buying flowers for your friend to show that you care. This will show your friend and her family that you truly care for your friend and are 100% supportive.

I know you'll be strong and brave, girlie. Try your best to keep your head up. You showing this side of you will give your friend a hope that she won't find anywhere else. I definitely have faith in you.

<3, Sharon
