Seriously--the adrenaline spike is incredibly horrible. I seriously cannot ever imagine becoming one of those extreme-sport type people. I HATE that feeling of like really extreme hot or cold blood rushing through you, and then the AFTER effects--my god. Just thinking about it has my heart rate up. D=
And the problem with interfering is that there's no way to know how helpful it will ever be. Even if she gets out of this one...it's just so much more likely that she'll fall into another exact same situation. I guess the trick is to just never let yourself become jaded about it. Even if someone is likely just going to trip into the next ditch, it doesn't mean you just let them to rot in the one they're in. Besides...you never know. This might be the last time, and they'll go onward with their lives in a more positive way.
Well, now that you know there's a history there, and a precedent, when you hear the noises begin, you'll hopefully be able to get the call in faster, and get them there sooner. And cops aren't stupid--they're people too who can notice the details that are there, and they know there's a reason why every time they get a domestic disturbance call they find the woman crying and holding her arms around her stomach, or cradling her head.
