Even if it is, why are you reporting a harmless thread?

I wouldn't give a damn about the mother's "weird emotions." She should have been watching her child better, and this wouldn't have happened. The mother is self-absorbed.

Op, I have saved two lives. One involved a stroke and getting the person airlifted to the hospital. The other involved a coworker who had not shown up for work. I did a wellness check, and they were lying on the floor unconscious.
Both times, I didn't receive a word of gratitude. I let it go because I assumed they were embarrassed for reasons unclear.
What you did was far more than what I did. Your friend definitely owes you more than a thank you. You risked your life to save her child. I would cut her off if she decides not to have the decency to thank you.

I scooped her up, pressed her against my friend and said thank you quickly to the man. My friend didn't thank him but was asking her toddler if she was okay and talking to her. She was just focused on her daughter.
Maybe your friend was just overwhelmed by the fact that her daughter almost died.
This!
Your friend should be concerned about your well being even if her child wasn't involved. If my friend got hit by a car; I'd send flowers, no matter what.
My husband saved a child from drowning at our club and the mother never acknowledged him either. It's wierd what that type of stress does to people.
Try to forgive her, she's human.

I will take things that never happened (but I read about on Reddit) for $800 Alex.

It was the motorcyclists fault and she was not charged with anything, but had a lawyer in the family who quickly told her to get her own lawyer in a case like this. She did and the first thing he said is not contact the family, don’t post anything on social media, don’t make any public statements. She felt terrible and wanted to reach out to the family but never did. When an accident occurs and there is any chance that you could have liability, you really can’t interact with the other party in America in 2025. She probably really wants to and is being told not to by her counsel.
This is why people hate low life ambulance chasers. Such a lack of common decency.

Yes that’s terrible she should absolutely have reached out to you. She was probably in shock at first, but by now at the very very least she should check on you. I would not say anything to her, but I’d also ghost her.

I ran after her and threw myself in front of her body knocking her forward but I was hit by the car myself and ended up with two broken legs. The friend obviously knows what happened, it was a major scene with the ambulance called and both myself and the toddler were taken to the hospital although the toddler had no injuries besides some scrapes and bruises. The driver of the car even stated they could not see the toddler at all and may not have even slammed on the brakes if they didn’t see me. I’ve been friends with this woman for years. At the minimum I expected some sort of thank you- flowers, a note, a call, something but absolutely nothing. I’m actually furious. I didn’t do it for acknowledgement but this feels so cold and rude. Would you say anything?
LOL. Sorry but I just can’t imagine women doing that. Good dramatic line though. B+ on that.

PP all said it already.
In the moment she was caught up in her kid almost dying by her lack of attention.
I’m sorry you’re going through this OP. Hope you are better soon and have a good support system
Now in the aftermath She’s afraid you’ll try to sue her. A “Thank you” acknowledges what you did for her and admits that she may owe you for it. Just Fighting it would be an ordeal.
It’s definitely not right - she’s in the wrong and it’s hard to understand actions from someone something that you would not do..
