                                            👦 A 8-Year-Old Girl Calls 911 and Says, 'It Was My Dad and His Friend... Please Help Me!' — The Truth Brought Everyone to Tears
The truth leaves everyone with tears in their eyes.
Emergency dispatcher, Vanessa Gómez, had answered thousands of calls in her 15 years at the Pinos Verdes County emergency center.
Most were predictable: heart attacks, car accidents, fallen trees.
But the call that came in at 2:17 on that Tuesday afternoon in September took her breath away.
—911. What is your emergency? —Vanessa's voice was calm and trained.
There was silence for 3 seconds.
Then a tiny voice appeared, trembling between whispers and sobs:
—It was my dad and his friend. Please help me.
Vanessa straightened in her chair, fingers ready on the keyboard.
—Sweetheart, are you okay? Can you tell me your name?
—My name is Liliana. I'm 8 years old —the girl replied with a broken voice—.
My tummy hurts so, so much. It's big and it keeps growing.
In the background, Vanessa could hear Mexican cartoons playing on the television.
No adult voices, no noise.
—Liliana, where are your parents now?
—Mom is asleep because her body is fighting her again. Dad is at work. —she whimpered—.
I think what they gave me made me sick.
Vanessa motioned to her supervisor while keeping her voice calm.
—What do you mean by that, Liliana? What did your dad and his friend give you?
—Food and water. But it was after they came that my tummy started to hurt horribly.
The girl's breathing quickened.
—And now it’s all big and no one wants to take me to the doctor.
While sending Officer José López to the tracked address, Vanessa kept the girl on the line.
—Can you look out your window, sweetheart? A police officer is going to help you. His name is Officer López and he's very kind.
Through the phone, Vanessa heard footsteps and then a little sigh.
—The patrol car is here. He's going to cure my tummy.
—He's going to help you, Liliana. Stay with me on the phone and open the door when he knocks.
Officer López approached the modest one-story house on Maple Street. Read more in Comment or Most relevant -> All Comments 🗨️
