Community, I really need your prayers
« on: August 15, 2010, 08:43:11 PM »
   Yesterday my fiance', 7 months pregnant with our daughter, had a serious car accident.  Apparently, the metal coupling on the brake lines on her van had rusted & decided to split while she was on the highway.  She had no idea she was spewing brake fluid on the road behind her until she hit the off ramp.  She had no brakes.   It's a short 180 degree off ramp that gave her no time to react.  She rolled the van twice and then it slid on the driver's side for quite aways out into a field.  Although she had her seatbelt on, she got pretty banged up and, worse of all, it sent the baby into distress.  I've been at the hospital with her for the last 36 hours, while the docs have been trying to get the baby problems under control and take care of Shannon's injuries.  They've been keeping a room ready for an emergency premature C-section if it comes down to it.  Right now, with medication, the baby ordeal is under control.  It's just a waiting game now.  I ask for prayers from anyone that will take the time.  We are each single parents of 3, so our baby will be the 7th cootie kid in our home.  I need momma at home.  

Tho not very religious myself, I find myself constantly praying for them & everything to be ok.  I ask you all to join me and send a short prayer for my family.  They are my life and I am nothing with out them.  Thank you for your time.

Right now, with medication, the baby ordeal is under control. 

Hang in there, dude.  Seven months these days is like term used to be.  My daughter was born at 33 weeks, but I remember we celebrated when we hit 28.  That was nearly a quarter of a century ago, nothing but improvement in the science ever since.  How's poor Shannon?  Couldn't tell what her injuries were.  Kiss her for me for being bright enough to wear her seat belt.

All will be fine, no matter how worried you are right now.  Keep us posted as things progress.
