This will get rather involved if I use prose, so I'll just do the cliff's version:
1) baby's due date is 2.5 weeks away
2) wife commute is 45 minutes (each way)
3) wife is 2 hours late getting home and still no word
4) I could not contact her on her cell or work line
5) weather is bad... snowing and 20 F
6) I call hospitals, police dept.s, and state troopers.... NO information available
7) I decide that there are only two possibly explanations:
- she is in a ditch somewhere or
- one of her students went psycho on her (her job involves dealing with college students with disabilities some of which are things like schizophrenia, bipolar, etc...)
8) I drive towards her work, not knowing what else to do
9) In 20 miles on the interstate I see no less than 8 cars that have lost control and ended up in the ditch
10) I get halfway there... finally she call's me.

11) One of her students committed suicide towards the end of the work day. She got wrapped up in dealing with it and lost track of the time. So she and the baby are fine, but the student is dead.
