A friend of my husband's knocked on our door early Sunday morning saying that his sister was in the hospital. Apparently she had been run over by her ex-husband's 16 yr old daughter. There's alot to the story so I won't go into too many details except to say that the sister has had a troubled life, filled with drugs and plenty of jailtime. We are all hoping that this incident may be her wake up call. We would like prayers for healing (spiritual as well as physical) for the sister, as well as prayers for the young girl who will face charges of assault with a deadly weapon, and attempted murder among others. This is a situation where the crime was somewhat understandable but not acceptable and the young girl has made a hasty decision that will change her life.
Prayers offered.
You have my prayers.
Here is the latest information I have. The sister is now out of the hospital with her jaw wired shut and a concussion and some minor road rash.. the doctors said her extremely intoxicated condition actually saved her more serious damage. There is no word yet on what charges will be filed against the younger girl.
I would like to thank all of you for your prayers in this matter.. sometimes we have to pray for people that are not easy to be nice to.. but we have to put that aside and do as Our Father asks.. please continue prayers for further physical healing and spiritual healing as well for the sister and the younger girl.
