Wow do the weeks fly by! It's time again for Show n' Tell with Canadagirl. Come join the fun and meet new friends by clicking on Canadagirl.

Today is my neice's birthday! Each year this an extra special event because our gracious God allowed her to remain with us. Her parents (my older brother & my sil) were driving to sil's high school reunion and 5 miles from their destination they were hit head on by a drunk driver. My brother died at the local hospital taking the brunt of the crash. My sil and neice were flown to Mpls where my sil died the next day and my neice continued to fight for her life. Each time the doctors had to turn down the oxygen for fear of brain damage my neices little lungs (she was 18 months) kicked in and she slowly recovered with much physical/occupational therapy. My parents raised her and now this year she turned 20.

Here's a pic of my folks and neice.

 

 

Due to the accident she has some brain injury and her lungs are weak. She is a very sweet girl and will need all of us in the future to look after her. My Beloved has always been open to this bless his heart. Please pray for her to keep trying her best and for us who will be watching over her in the future.

Blessings from the very chilly little farm,

Jenny

Wow Jenny, I didn't know any of this. I'm sorry to hear of your brother & sil. Your niece is beautiful - Happy Birthday to her. I pray that all goes well for your family in the care of this sweet girl.

Keep warm dear! We are headed your way (I think) this afternoon for a big family Christmas party at a church gym in "L". Have a good weekend - inside!!!

Hi Jenny,
What a touching story. I'm sure she has been a blessing to your parents. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom's memory problems. Prayers are with you all.
(I live in Michigan, the lower peninsula. My husband's job takes him up there once in a while, and sometimes we get to go with him! Love it. If we ever leave Michigan, my hope is for northern MN or WI.)
