My mother was in a terrible car accident yesterday afternoon. She was driving home from P.T. and apparently fell asleep at the wheel. She veered off the road, into a ditch, hit a tree and the front end of the car tipped down and the roof was resting on the tree. She has broken a vertibrae in her back and will need surgery. They live up in Northern WI, and I am going to head out there tonight or tomorrow morning. Her surgery might be tomorrow. She is in alot of pain. I had a short talk with her this morning and the nurse had started to rise her bed up a bit and mom cried out. It just made me bawl. I just am asking for friends here on TCS to send prayers to my mother. She is eighty years old and this will be a tough recovery.
The whole family is suppose to be gathering at the end of July up in Door County at my parents house for a family reunion and photo. The first thing my mom said in the emergency room yesterday (when I was talking to my dad) was that "we are NOT cancelling the family reunion, and we are going to get that family photo, no matter what"..... That's my mom. Thank you for any prayers and I will try to keep you posted.
