Woo Hoo!!
I've hit 100 followers!
This makes me VERY happy!
Thanks to all of you read my blog!
I have a giveaway planned starting Monday for all of you WONDERFUL followers! I am having a busy weekend with work and Grace and everything else in between so I am very sorry to say that it will have to wait until Monday. Please stay tuned in for that though! I am very excited to have my very first giveaway on my blog! :D
Thanks to all of you who said, and to those who just did without saying, they would pray and be thinking about my friend Grace! :)
She is doing very well! They actually took her off of the medication for the coma this morning and she came out of it well. She is able to open her eyes and look around. She can give thumbs up on her right had side 75% of the time and 25% of the time on her left (lower on her left because that's where her clavicle is broken so its probably painful. Last I knew she was given pain medication at one o'clock this afternoon and so far she hasn't needed any more. SHE IS ONE TOUGH LADY! Doctors say she might be able to leave sooner than they had expected. :)
THANK YOU ALL!
Well sorry to cut it short but I only had a little while to do a post, but I wanted to share the news about Grace and my giveaway! :D
Leaving you with a picture of my Ellie.
Yes that is her.. underneath a couch. Silly silly girl.
Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe in the power of prayer?
Well I do.
My very dear friend Grace was in a HORRIBLE accident yesterday afternoon. She left her house at one and the call didn't go out until 2:30. She was found only 15 minutes from her house. Which means she was there for over an hour.. by herself, hurt and in trouble.
Some one on a motorcycle found her car. Thank God they could see her because she was apparently really far into the woods. I can't even imagine what it was like for her just sitting there in pain with no way to call for help. She was helpless. I can't even imagine!
As I sit crying my eyes out I try to think what must have been running through her mind. For me it would be like. Is this it? Is this my time to go? Why am I going in pain? Why can't I go painless? Well thankfully for her that wasn't it and she is still here.
I don't know how long it took the first responders to get there but by then she was unconscious. They found her with tear stained checks and a tear stained shirt. OH MY GOD Grace was in pain that she was crying.. my Grace!
They have to use the jaws of life to get her out of her car. That's how bad it was! I just recently saw a picture of what the car looked like after they got her out and I can't even imagine! Once they took her to the hospital they decided to take her to the bigger (and better) hospital two hours away.
She has a broken clavicle, lacerations, and a swollen brain. Once they got her to the hospital they induced her into a coma for a while. In about 72 hours they will start taking the medicine off and waking her up. Until then I wait.
She does, however, respond to her mom's and dad's voice also her sister's. Her blood pressure (or pulse or something) goes down when her parents talk and goes up when her sister talks. Typical sister relationship. I don't know anything else, but only positive thoughts and prayers to Grace and her friends and family.
So will you all please pray for Grace and her friends and family. I know you don't know her at all, but this is serious and life threatening. I know it could be a lot worse. Please and thank you.
