Urgent Prayer Request!!

Would you please take a moment to pray for my 4 year old niece, Sarah? While she was visiting us this evening she stood up and fell out of the bicycle basket that my daughter Emily was giving her a ride in. Within moments she was vomiting and lethargic. Her mom called the doctor, who felt it was warranted to call 911. The paramedics came and checked her out and said her vitals were fine, but we might want to take her to the pediatric ER just for caution's sake.

Thank God that we did because she does indeed have a skull fracture and it's in a tricky place. There is no bleeding or displacement, but they are transferring her to a trauma unit just as a precaution that should occur overnight and a pediatric neurosurgeon should be needed.

Please pray that her condition remains stable, for a quick recovery, for peace for my brother and his wife, and for Emily and Daniel (who feel somewhat responsible since they were watching over here at the time).

Thank you, bloggy friends!!! I'll keep you updated.

My son read about this last night on Daniel's blog. We will keep praying for her. I'm very glad y'all decided to take her to the hospital. Please tell Emily and Daniel not to feel bad, accidents happen.

I am indeed saying a prayer right now. For her and your children, especially.

Oh my goodness! I will keep her in my prayers. I am shocked the paramedics didn't take her to the hospital. It seems quite negligent on their part.
