Good evening everyone, thank you all so very much for your thoughts and prayers for my daughter Jackie.  She has a broken pelvis, not 4 broken ribs like I thought but has 4 on the right side and more on the left side. She had an epidermal put in on her back so it would numb the rib cage area so she can move and breathe better, but she has so much pain in the pelvis. She is still in the critical care unit at Riverside Regional Hospital here in Newport News. I ask that you all continue to pray for her as much prayer is needed.
I will post her hospital number tomorrow and her address if anyone is interested in sending her a card.
Love and prayers to you all and your families for being such a great group of friends.
Love ya,
Betty

Betty, I continue to pray for Jackie. Please remember to take care of yourself during this time too though. You won't do anyone any good if you get sick too. Much love to you!

Thanks, Betty:

It sounds like Jackie will have a long way to go to recovery yet.  Please know that she is in my prayers and I also pray you will have strength and courage and that you will be able to get some rest.

Betty, I was thinking of Jackie when I was in church yesterday. The homily was about the power of prayer and the Sacrament of Healing which my church will celebrate in a couple of weeks. Our priest suggested we keep someone in mind this week who is suffering and offer up prayers of healing and strength. We also had the opportunity to say that person's name out loud during our Petitions ("Lord hear our prayer") and Jackie's name was in my heart and mind and on my lips as I continued to pray for courage and healing and an easing of her pain.
