I wish I knew how to reply to all of you at the same time. All your kind words, thoughts and prayers are very comforting to us.
Robert has improved so much on Christmas day, it’s a true miracle. He is out of ICU and ready to fight this battle.
Long term.... they will have to give up there second floor apartment and temporarily move in with his parents. We’re starting to build a wheelchair ramp, find a wheelchair, walker....
Destiny is still critical. She is still not strong enough for another surgery and still in a coma. Doctors want to move her to Emory hospital in Atlanta within the next 2 weeks.
We’re still waiting on the complete police report and don’t have details, but do know that the other driver was arrested at the accident scene.
Thanks everybody. It’s very comforting to have ya’ll.
Thank you for taking the time. We will continue to pray God’s healing, peace and comfort for all, especially Destiny.
Thank you for the update, ANKE. From what you said it sounds like we can be be cautiously optimistic here at FR. I’m so grateful for Robert’s progress and for the fact that he has his parents, wife and wonderful in-laws in his life and in position to help him in all of the ways that you all are doing.
Sweet Destiny is going to come around in her own time; isn’t that just how we girls do? Meanwhile, she has lots of FRiends keeping her close in their hearts and prayers, not to mention her school friends, family and neighbors who are probably busy making get well cards and planning visits to see her. I don’t have to know Destiny to know she is very well loved; her grandma is all the proof I need. She will be in great hands at Emory; I’ve heard nothing but good things about that hospital. I’m guessing that your daughter will be stretched a bit more thinly with husband and daughter in different places; extra prayers for Stina and for you all as you help take up the slack.
Please take care of yourself as you are caring for everyone else. I don’t know if you are there in the area with Robert and Destiny or are dealing with all of this from afar, but try to get some rest, either way.
A hug to you, my FRiend.
You are in our hearts and prayers here at Free Republic.....
.....thank-you for the update!!!!
I know you must be so weary and tired....
I truly hope there are good friends, family and pastors close by to help meet your needs.
This is wonderful news of Robert!...Thank-you Lord.
We continue to hold Destiny in prayer......Prayer is powerful!!
She is your heart, I can tell.
my granddaughter is my heart too!
May God hold you in his comforting arms.
Bless you Anke
