My Room

"Everyone carries a room about inside them. This fact can even be proved by means of the sense of hearing. If someone walks fast and one pricks up one's ears and listens, say at night, when everything round about is quiet, one hears, for instance, the rattling of a mirror not quite firmly fastened to the wall." -Franz Kafka

Request for prayer

This morning Christine's mom was thrown into a fence while riding one of her horses. She spent the day at the hospital being tested for a concussion, fractures, and internal injuries. We just talked to her sister, who said that they are on their way home. The final diagnosis is four fractured ribs and a broken shoulder. No internal injuries so far as we know, but we have to watch her for the next couple of days.

Fortunately, we had extended family over for the holiday, and mom's sister and friend, both of whom are nurses, were with her when the accident occured.

    Mom is home and walking. It hurts her to cough or laugh, and she can't lift any weight, but she's managing on Ibuprofen every couple of hours. Thanks for your prayers.
