Needy Wish
This wish has been granted!
Financial help and prayers, for Brooke and her family....
As many of you know, my cousin Brooke Springer was in a bad vehicle accident on
March 18, 2008, in Webster Springs-West
Virginia. In the beginning it was touch and go. Brooke broke her neck and back. She bruised her lungs, and broke her pelvis front and back, too.
She had numerous injuries and was in a hospital in Charleston, West Virginia, for approximately 2 weeks. She has since been moved to HealthSouth Mountain View Regional Rehabilitation Hospital, in Morgantown, West Virginia, for rehabilitation.
The doctors are saying that she will more than likely be paralyzed from the waste down.
Brooke is very depressed and has started to realize her limitations. She is only 18 and was getting ready
to graduate from high school. She is used to playing all different kinds of sports, and this is a devastating blow to what she once knew, and how she lived her life.
These types of injuries, cause so many different problems.
Her family is in need of financial support, as well as, prayers.
This money would help to cover some of the costs associated with Brooke's hospital stay, room and board, or food for her mom to stay with her in Morgantown, while Brooke is going through rehabilitation. Her mother lives 3 hours away, and cannot drive this everyday.
Her mother is still recovering from a double-lung transplant, that she received back in January.
At this time, the doctors aren't expecting Brooke to go home for at least, another month and half.
They will be letting her attend her graduation if at all possible, but she will have to go right back to the rehabilitation center.
We are not giving up on Brooke, and know it is very possible that she may walk again.
We have strong faith, and we are holding on to that!
Thank you for reading this wish, and any support, be it financial or by prayer, would be truly appreciated.
If you would like to leave an uplifting message to her, you can sign her guestbook, as well.

Brooke and our family, we truly appreciate it!
