Thanks everyone for answering my urgent prayer request last week regarding my little cousin Lauren who was run over while playing on the garage floor.
It is just a miracle, plain and simple. Lauren went home from the hospital on Tuesday. No surgery was required on her liver or her broken pelvis or leg. Both legs are in casts (not just the broken one) in order to support and help the pelvis heal. The cast goes up almost to her arm pits in order to protect the liver. Any bump could cause harm because it is lacerated and it is a fragile organ, needing time to heal. They anticipate she will be in the cast for 8 weeks.
I talked with Lauren’s grandfather on Wednesday evening, and he wanted me to express their appreciation to all the people who prayed and continue to pray for her healing. He said, “It worked!” He said it “made a believer out of me” (in reference to the power of prayer).
We are all so thankful to God for sparing Lauren’s life. When it comes to mind, please continue to pray for her complete healing and also for her mother’s horrible memories of the accident.
In the grip of His grace,
Robin
Robin–So happy and grateful to hear the good news! My niece (30 years ago) was born with two dislocated hips. They put her in a body cast from armpits down to knees (just an opening for bathroom purposes) for 18 months. It’s amazing how much a kid can still do even in that cast! She learned to walk like that! I hope the 8 weeks flies by for your family and that healing (including emotional) is complete in no time!
That’s good news, Robin : >
God is good! Will continue to pray.
That story freaked me out a little, having two kids who play in and around the garage. Thanks for posting the followup…
So glad to hear the good news. Will continue to pray for Lauren and for the mother. God forgives — there are times in our lives when we, too, have to learn to forgive ourselves or others.
Thank God! A similiar thing happened to my little brother, but luckily my Uncle saw him before the tire went up to his knee. Everyone was traumatized after that happened so I can’t imagine how your cousin must feel after her baby was injured! Well thank Jesus that she’s alright.
Signing Off,

Praise God!!! I too have a 5 month old and things like that scare me.
on a side note, I went to the library the other day to request more of your books. I asked the librarian to send over from other libraries any of your books published in the last 2 yrs. She entered your name and gasped, “She must be prolific, she’s got three here published this year.” Thank you for being so prolific, I look forward to reading them when they arrive
Blessings

I’m so glad she’s okay! I’ll keep praying for her.
