| I have seen what prayer can do and this board is always so willing to send them up! So if you will please pray for a Nevada family I run barrels with who has been struck by tragedy not once but twice in the last month.
On their home from Thanksgiving they were driving on a frozen road. Another driver in the oncoming lane got impatient and tried to pass a snow plow. The father who was driving tried to avoid a head on collision, skid off the road and rolled. The father, mother and daughter were all unconsious. When the daughter came to she tried to pull her father from the car. She found her mother 30 to 50 feet away from the vehicle hung up in a barbed wire fence. During the wreck the daughter lost one of her shoes but she tried to get help in 20 degree weather and snow. She continued to walk up to the road and back down the hill to check her parents. She suffered sever frost bite on both feet. The one with no shoe has still not recovered. The father parished in wreck, the mother suffered a broken neck, broken ribs, broken femur, lacerations and more.
Yesterday, the mother and daughter were on their way to doctors appointments when a driver failed to stop at a red light and smashed into the side of the car the mother was on breaking her back. The daughter was was ok, other than emotionally.
So lets all pray for them! |

      Location: Northern CA | I know the family well. You could not ask for better people. I know of no-one who has gone as many terrible things in one life time as the mother, starting long before the accident. She is so strong and perservered through so much, someone I admire so much. I do not usually believe in the Go Fund Me accounts, but there is one set up for this family, and it is well deserved. Please if you have even just a little to spare, this is a great cause. |

I have only known them for the last 5 years and just through races. The daughter always includes my little girl in the fun at the trailer. It seems like it has been one thing after another for them, broke my heart to see them suffer another tragedy. They have been through so much.
