OT: Prayers Needed Badly
This is my first chance to sit down at a computer since the accident.

My wife Samantha and my 2 year old son were involved in a terrible car crash yesterday afternoon just north of Hunstville. Apparently her vehicle lost control and flipped multiple times.

My son is fine, my wife is not. Samantha suffered a fractured skull with blood on the brain, the bones in her face are fractured, the skin on her left arm is gone, and she has a punctured lung.

I have been informed that death is nolonger a primary concern, our biggest worry is permanent brain damage.

Please pray for my wife Samantha Bowen, she is my world.

I know I'm usually a joker, but I never joke about the power of prayer!
I shall stop posting now and pray for your family & you to stay strong.

RE: OT: Prayers Needed Badly
Her doctor came out and told us that brain surgery went well. They have removed a blood clot and part of her skull. The issue is swelling and theyre doing everything they can to reduce it.

She is being kept in a medically induced coma "indefinitly." She will not be allowed to wake until they are sure she can handle it. The pain wracking her body must be intense.

I have been told that she will NOT require facial reconstruction surgery, which we believed would be the case until moments ago. Her nose is broke and the eye socket is fractured, but the plastic surgeon isn't going to be needed now.

We're looking at months, perhaps years of therapy here. I'm terrified ya'll, I just dont know what I'm going to do. This woman has been my everything for so long that I can't go on without her. I know the Lord has a plan for everything, but right now I'm struggling with the cruelty of this situation.

Thank you all for your prayers. This community has been a source of happiness and sometimes sadness, but it's MY community. You all are very important to me, this board is very important to me, and I hope God will bless you all...after he's done with us. 04-cheers

God Bless.
