My friend had been involved in a car crash after forgetting to be safe

My friend had been involved in a car crash after forgetting to be safe and the crash, was to say the least, quite a bad one. The crash involved a head on collision which had left my friend in a coma in hospital. I felt tragic when I discovered the news. It was ironic really, for my friend had just passed his theory test and he knew that for his theory test he had to be a safe driver and so to go from a safe driver passing his theory test to lying on his death bed, it was quite sad. I decided to go visit my friend but the image of him laid there on a bed with tubes coming out of all parts of his body was a terrifying image and I could not handle it at all. I decided to go on a food binge, specifically, a chocolate binge to comfort myself. I felt rather selfish. There my friend was, lying in hospital with his family surrounding him not knowing if he would survive or die, and here I was, worrying about needing chocolate. Was I being selfish? Was I just upset? I was just so worried, even if he survived, which to be honest, at the moment was a huge IF, what if he had brain damage from losing too much oxygen or something? I just could not bear the thought of it. The thought made me physically ill. I had other worries too. My boyfriend was looking for the cheapest skip hire for the trash he needed to get rid of and finding the cheapest was proving to be a difficult task. He needed the cheapest because he had just been made redundant at work and so his monthly wages were proving to be low and money was proving to be tight. I wished I was a millionaire, or at least rich, then me and the people close to me would not have any worries or problems about money. There would be no issues. I just wanted to go out and spend and buy whatever I liked.
