oh man, i honestly don’t know what he would have done, if he’d have waited for the first responders or not. probably he’d have waited until the paramedics got there and then took off before they could ask too many questions/before the police got involved. he’d have reached out somehow to make sure she was okay. he’s not currently using and has done the twelve step programs (always quitting before going though all the steps). these days he’s managing his meds and going to treatment for bpd, but time will tell how long that lasts. but their reunion should be interesting!
