Urgent Prayer Request for My Young Cousin, Severe Head Injury - Update at #2982
My family | Thursday January 25, 2007 | GretchenM

My aunt and uncle sent this out to our family at 6:30 AM today. Carrie is my young cousin, a very gifted artist, and the second eldest among her siblings. She and her family are in Michigan.

Prayer reqeust from my aunt and uncle (Carrie is their granddaughter).

This morning on her way to work Carrie's car slid on the highway and into a tree. She has very bad injuries, especially to her head. Her brain is swelling and she is now in surgery. They plan to open her skull to allow for the swelling, and she is not responding.

They don't give her parents a lot of hope. We are telling everyone so you can join us in praying for our dear Caroline. They called her parents about 7:45 this morning and they're at the hospital now.

Our Carrie’s not skipping a beat! That is such fantastic news ... I am sure she has an awareness of her surroundings and is giving hints to her family and caretakers. Bit by bit improvements will continue. Thanks so much for sharing, Gretchen.

Even without our prayer leader to guide us now, prayers continue daily for Carrie and the family.

Lord, hold them and guide them all in their hour of need. Amen.
