Juella's daughter Whitney was in a very serious car accident early Saturday morning. Her car hit an elk, the elk came thru the windshield and Whitney's face took a direct hit. Amazingly she survived the crash but is in bad shape. She has over 40 fractures in her face. The most amazing part is when I went to see her on Saturday she was alert and talking - just like Whitney always is!! She went in for surgery on Sunday but they had to stop because her eye is in worse shape then they first thought. They transported her to a different hospital and is supposed to have surgery again on Monday. It's going to be a very long road ahead but we are just so thankful that she is still with us and amazingly enough there are no injuries to her brain, neck, etc..
With all of this going on we are so blessed to be a part of Juella's life - along with her extended family. Ashley heard the 1st phone call I received from Juella and has been very concerned. We took the girls up to the hospital on Sunday to see Juella and Brad. Ashley and Hailey were so happy to see them - along with Grandma and Grandpa Dewey - and Mandy (Whitney's sister). We are so blessed to be a part of this amazing family - the love my girls are showered with is amazing - even thru this tough time!
We are sending Whitney and the family good thoughts always and praying for a quick recovery for Whitney. This is going to be so hard on her being the teenager she is and always talking!! We love her so very much!
