Thank the Lord!!!

For those who have not already heard, Stacy and Grant (her fiance), were in an accident yesterday. I have had several calls from family and friends, and I think there are many who read my blog and thought I could update as many people as possible with one posting.

Yesterday, at around noontime, Stacy and Grant were driving her little Hyundai Accent in downtown Winnipeg en route to another location. They were already in the intersection when they realized their light was red. A semi was coming towards them, and hit the passenger door of the car. They were both taken by ambulance to the local trauma hospital in the city.

Grant's injuries are two fracture ribs, and a collapsed lung. He was released from the hospital today but is still in a fair amount of pain.

Stacy's injuries are fractures to the C4 vertebrae, the T12 and L1 vertebrae, and the "wing" area of her left hip. So basically, in the neck, in the lower back, and in a non-weight bearing area of the hip. She is still in the hospital waiting for a back brace, which she will be wearing for about six weeks.

Please be praying for her and Grant that they recover well, and thankful that they were able to only have these injuries as a result of the crash.
