Prayer, please

Question

Hey my fellow Spanishdict.com users. I know how much we all love to revel in the Spanish language, but I have a different favor to ask.

Yesterday, one of my friends got into a car wreck and could possibly be paralyzed. Could you all say a little prayer for her family and the surgery that will be taking place in a couple of hours?

Her is more info about what occurred: http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2010/12/02/18-year-old-injured-in-crash.html

Thank you very much.

You got mine Esperanza. - ian-hill, Dec 3, 2010

More News:

Kaitlyn's surgery did not go as well as hoped. She will be paralyzed from the waist down.

Thank you for all your prayers and continue to pray for her as she and her family adjust.

Kaitlyn and her family will be in my prayers. - Jason7R, Dec 3, 2010

Answer 2

How sad for your friend and the family, I am so sorry. I will say a prayer for them.

Answer 3

Yes, I have prayed for your friend and will keep them in prayer but I have only just entered SpanishDict today so I was not previously aware of the situation.

I trust to God/jesus that they will be kept safe and make a full recovery in a realistic time.

How old is the person who was involved in the crash and what is their name?

She has posted the link to the report in her message. - Eddy, Dec 3, 2010

Thanks Eddy :) - FELIZ77, Dec 3, 2010

Answer 4

Here's hoping that your friend pulls through and quickly at that. We can only image the grief and fear that her family and friends, including yourself, are going through at the moment. If it's any comfort at all, it's amazing how resilient the human body can be even under the most horrific circumstances.

Beautifully and sensitively expressed Eddy :) - FELIZ77, Dec 3, 2010

Answer 5

I will do that and I hope everything turns out ok. That was an awful crash.

Answer 6

I have prayed for you both. My God bless you and your friend with her complete recovery.

Answer 7

I will keep your friend (and you) in my prayers.

Answer 8

"Señor, concédeme serenidad para aceptar las cosas que no puedo cambiar, valor para cambiar las cosas que sí puedo y sabiduría para reconocer la diferencia"

San Francisco de Asís

That is also the prayer that I prayed. - Echoline, Dec 4, 2010

Sí, es la que más fuerza me da cuando lo necesito :) - Benz, Dec 4, 2010

Answer 9

Yes, I will pray.

Answer 10

So sorry to hear about this, Esperanza. Definitely including Kaitlyn, her family, you and all her are close to her in my prayers.

Answer 11

I praise God for preserving Kaitlyn's life and surrounding her with people who love her and are praying for her. Please keep us up to date on how she is doing, and let her know that she will have our continued prayers during her long time of recuperation and adjustment. Please tell her to fight, and fight hard, to make the very most of her life. All is not lost. Please give her a hug from me.

Answer 12

It so happens I am leaving this very moment for a Damma talk and meditation

with a Burmese monk "Sayadaw Kabaya" who always ends the session with a

transfer of merits from all those in attendance to whomsoever is in need,

this evening your friend will get all our merits and prayers.

Answer 13

You and your friend certainly have all the prayers from everyone here at SD.

Here is a little bit of hope: They are working now on ways of taking undifferentiated stem cells, and making them into nerve cells.

Answer 14

I definitely believe in the power of intention, positive thoughts and prayers. You, your friend and your families are in mine.

Answer 15

I am just now reading this thread and I had hoped her going from crital condition to serious was a good sign. I am so sorry and sad to hear the operation has not gone well. I'm stuned and in shock, so those closest to Kaitlyn must be besides themselves. My prayer is for courage and strength to all!
