I had stayed here every birthday of mine. It’s a family tradition to travel and all my family comes up. We were swimming and having so much fun, until my grandma had fell upstairs and was unconscious. Me and my cousin were running to get help and the workers stopped us and told us to slow down and we were “over exaggerating”. The ambulance showed up and it turns out my grandma had had a hard attack.
