An update on my niece:
It will take time, but we expect her to make a complete recovery. She came through today’s surgery very well. There will be some minor surgery again in a couple of days.
Her story is like many I have heard. She had taken shelter at a co-worker’s home when the tornado hit. She remembers being airborne {her exact words were, “flying around inside the tornado”} and she remembered praying someone would find her underneath all the wreckage.
Her husband was not allowed into the neighborhood since the block had already been marked “checked”. He knew his wife was still there and he was able to alert friends who lived nearby. As they were rechecking the place, they noticed a foot sticking out from under a tree. These friends quickly acquired chain saws and cut the tree and other debris away from my niece.
By now, her husband had made his way in. God provided a closet door and a golf cart to carry her through two miles of more wreckage to Freeman hospital.
I would like to thank each of you for your prayers. “Wherever two or three are gathered together in My name, there am I in the midst of them.”
May God richly reward you for your thoughtfulness !
“It will take time, but we expect her to make a complete recovery.”
So happy to hear that! What an incredible story.
More prayers said!
