I debated over posting this to the List but we need all the prayers we can
get so I decided to go ahead and let you folks know what is going on.
Last Friday night my secretary whose name is Jamie Webber (a 17 year old
high school student) was seriously injured in a car accident. She was hit
by a very troubled 19 year old girl who was on drugs and running from the
police. Jamie and three of her friends were driving in a '01 F*rd Explorer.
When they drove through an intersection, the car driven by the girl on drugs
failed to stop for a the stop sign and hit them probably doing over 60 mph.
She had her headlights off and it was night so the driver of the car that
Jamie was in had no chance to see trouble coming. Jamie was wearing her
seatbelt, however apparantly one of the attaching points broke in the crash
and she was ejected from the vehicle (the other three young people in the
Explorer were virtually unscratched). She is a pretty 17 year old junior in
High School. Her face was smashed in on one side, jaw broken and bones
around her eye broken. Her left arm was broken to the point where it needed
to be pinned back together, and she had several broken ribs. On Monday they
took her into surgery and put metal plates in her head on both sides and
wired her jaw shut. The next day her lung collapsed. Now she is back in
intensive care again and they are wondering if she is going to make it or
not. Please take some time today and pray for her/keep her in your
thoughts. At this point there is nothing else I can do. I know the folks
on the list care so I thought I would share this with you. This girl is
like a daughter to me and it is breaking my heart to see her going through
all of this. If you feel moved to send her a card or something please send
it to:
