PROVERBS 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths STRAIGHT.

H E L L .....

I really don't know where to start! Today has been an emotional roller coster. First and for most praise to God that my husband is still alive! Some of you may or may not know that my husband is a traffic deputy with the St. Tammany parish sheriff's dept, which means he rides a motorbike for a living. Well Friday afternoon about 12:45 or so he was struck by a pickup truck while escorting a funeral procession. It was 7 long hours in the ER and lots and lots of CT's and X-rays. The great news is he is alive!! It could have been much worse. For now we know that he has a broken left knee, some broken bones in his right toes and very bruised ribs. He is in the hospital and we are not sure when he will come home....they do not think that he needs surgery at this time, he may in the future, but the prayer is that the bones do not shift and heal where they are. His meniscus maybe torn too, but that will be addressed at a later date as that is not an emergency, he is being observed for any internal injuries in the abdomin area. I am still in a complete fog and all I can do is still aks for you to please keep him and the kids in your prayer, please! Not sure if the link below will work, but there is a picture of his bike and a short write up that was on the news.

I will try to update as much as possible...just please pray for him and the kids that they may know a little sense of peace...Please and thank you in advance. I would also love to thank all of my friends who came to the hospital to lend me support. I am doing fine...still a little foggy, but I am OK, just trying to get my barrings...But a big THANK YOU for being there for me!!! I love y'all!

Well, I keep up on Facebook but had missed this post on here. Goodness girl! When it rains it pours. The picture and news write-up gave me chills. To know what could have been just shows me that angels were with him. I'm sure that there are angels with you and your family with every step that you take.

Always lifting you up in prayer.
