Prayers for Donna

A friend of ours who worked for Barry on Long Island is in serious condition. She may have suffered a stroke that resulted in a car accident. Now she is in an induced coma. They had to remove a blood clot and also a section of her scalp to reduce the swelling. This section of the scalp has been sewn in under her skin on her stomach to keep it alive. As for extent of brain damage if any, won't be known until they bring her out of the coma in the next couple of days. She also suffered a punctured lung when they inserted a tube at the hospital.

This information was given to us by Barry's old boss. She and her husband have 2 young children.

Am asking for the power of prayer once again for Donna and her family. Mom and dad, you have met her and also my father in law has worked with her.

My prayers will be with Donna. May God heal her and remove any trace of damage to her brain.

So much suffering and sadness. What would we do without our faith?

Love, JK
