was just another ordinary day when my son’s frantic calls turned my world upside down. I could hear the fear in his voice as he told me that he could hear his mom screaming and unfamiliar voices in the house. Panic consumed me as I wondered what could possibly be happening.wasting a second, I rushed to my car and dialed my wife’s number, desperately hoping for an answer. But there was no response. In a state of urgency, I dialed 911 while my mind raced with worry. The drive back home felt like an eternity, filled with unsettling thoughts.
