Hey guys,
I'm updating on Shazia's behalf. Ruksar was doing good like she said before and another IF member who happened to live nearby visited her and the three of them had a nice time talking.
But out of the blue her ex showed up. He broke into her house and was hurting her. He had a gun, but Ruksar was brilliant and brave and stood up to him. She stared him down, and said "Shoot me." She went up to him and whispered something in his ear. First it made him a little startled, and he lowered the gun. He asked her to forgive him, and hugged her. But then he lost it and tried to force himself on her and kissed her. She fought back, and in that whole hoopla the gun went off. Ruksar is fine. Just has a slightly deep gash. And no one else was hurt.
He was finally arrested. Thank god. And then she broke down. She was crying all night. She barely ate for sehri, and was really weak. She shut herself in her room the whole time. And about 3 hours ago, she stopped answering her cellphone, texts and calls.
Shazia's brother came and broke into her room. She had passed out from weakness and lack of food. She was weak from crying too. The fall had caused a head injury and her arm's stitches to open. Shazia and her brother, and Zarah (the fellow IF member who lives near Ruksar and went to visit her) rushed her to the hospital.
She regained consciousness about an hour later, thanks to some meds the doctors gave her. Now she's been discharged and is on her way home.
She kinds broke down seeing Shazia and Zarah when she woke up, but were hoping it's because she wants to open up.
Let Shazia know if you guys would like more updates.
Please keep Ruksar in your prayers. She really is a sweetheart and knows about the thread. She's really grateful to all who have commented and prayed for her.
Monica
