Yesterday afternoon, a helicopter carrying 4 crashed into the mountain near Kachees Lake, in Washington. My mother is camping by herself, only 15 miles away, at Salmon Le Sac. There is no cell service there. The crash started a forest fire, and consumed 40 acres, as of last night (350 acres now). I was worried about my mom, and called my husband while he was at work. His response was "wow, that's not good." and that was it. No offers of support, no calming statements, and the tone of his voice was monotone. I was on pins and needles until after midnight. I contacted the fire department out there, and gave them her site information, and they went looking for her. All is fine, but I was still in a state of panick for half a dozen hours.
I got the impression from my husband, that he didn't see it as a big deal. How would you have reacted to the news, and what would you have done to calm me and reassure me that she was ok?
