Asking for Emergency Prayers Please......

In summary, my very good friend in Virginia has a niece that has been critically injured in a car accident in Maryland - on Sunday. We are asking for prayers for Alyvia and family wherever we can get them. The doctors all say they have never seen anyone hang on like she has and we all know it is Jesus.

My very good friend in Virginia has a niece that has been critically injured in a car accident in Maryland - on Sunday. We are asking for prayers for Alyvia and family wherever we can get them. The doctors all say they have never seen anyone hang on like she has and we all know it is Jesus. I have never met this little girl but I know her well from pictures. She is 8. Just imagine if this was your child.

PLEASE KEEP PRAYING!!!!!!!
> Today is Sunday, February 17, 2008. This is not a chain letter,
this is not a hoax, this is fact, this is my family!

> At around 1:30 pm today, my niece and her 8 year old daughter were
involved in a two vehicle accident in Ellerslie, Maryland. All three victims
had to be extricated, with my 8 year old niece taking the brunt of the
impact.
Because of Gods will and some excellent providers on the scene,
Alyvia was flown directly to Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown.
There in the ER, she crashed. After two chest tubes and over 15
minutes of resucitative measures, she was revived, this was the first time.
She became fluid depleted (ran out of blood) and crashed again. Her chest was opened in the ER and after another 15 - 20 minutes, she was revived again.

Both lungs had colapsed, her diaphram was torn from her sternum to her right
side, her liver is actually ruptured and is not fixable. They have it wrapped in packing to try and stop the bleeding. She has a concusion, her jaw is broken in three places. Her sternum was broken in two. Her kidney is bruised and has a large hematoma on the adrenal gland. Her colon is bruised. Her ribs are broken, both bones in her right arm are broken, both bones in her left arm are broken at the wrist and forearm. Both femurs are broken, both lower legs are broken in two. Her pelvis is broken and has a 1 1/2 inch gap in it. It is broken up into her lower spine. Her pubis bone is fractured.

Her prognosis is very grim, The general surgeon told us that he has
never seen anyone this beat up that was still alive. They have her
abdomen and chest opened for drainage, and in case they need access.
THey have put external fixtures on her extremeties, they are
autotransfusing some of what they are collecting from her lungs, liver and around her heart. Her heart is fine. They found no brain injury so far. After the first 10 hours, she has had 16 units of blood. There are at least 5 medical
persons in her room with her at all times. Her Mom is injured, but was
allowed to leave WMHS and go to Morgantown.

What do we need? Please pray for Alyvia, she is 8 years old. She is
such a girly girl, so soft spoken, yet funny. Pray for Gods Will.
 
I will be praying for her and everyone close to her!
 
My God Bless you during this time!
 
oh my.. she'll be in our thoughts and prayers.. and her family as well.
 
WOW! After reading that report I am shocked she is alive. I pray that a miracle will happen with healing!
 
WOW!! There must be a reason this person is still with us. I will be praying for this family as they have a long road ahead of them.
 
So sorryMy prayers are with you, this little child and her family.

Debbie :D
 
After reading the post, I'm speechless. I don't know what to say other than I'll pray for Alyvia and her family.

I'll be praying for her! I'll also send this off to many others at my childrens school. They have been praying for a classmate who was in an accident last week (her 17th birthday). She is improving and is now breathing on her own. She had a brain injury. They don't know yet if she will be okay, but it is looking really good.

We will include Alyvia in the prayer chain.

Wow...I don't even know what to say. I pray that God's hand is on her and she is feeling His prescence even now. If it is His will that she survive this...I pray for a complete recovery. If His will includes her going to heaven with Him, I pray that she is not in pain and that He would comfort her family. I can't even believe all of the trauma that her little body has...or how hard this must be on her family, friends, and the hospital workers that are helping her.
 
  • #18
WOW! And I was feeling sorry for my crew because we have the FLU! God always puts things in perspective. I will be praying for this family! It is obvious that God has His hand on Alyvia:angel:

I was just going to post this same e-mail - it was sent to the prayer chain from my church cluster.

I just got home from being out of town for the weekend and received this e-mail. I checked my local newspaper for the 'Police Log' and here is a link to the news article

http://www.times-news.com/policelog/local_story_049104216.html

If it doesn't work, I will copy and paste the article

I was told that this is the sweetest little girl you want to meet

Many Many prayers are going her way.

I just read her obituary on the website and the ending is so sad

I have an 8 year old - I don't want to think about what those parents are going through - I am sorry to say that - I just don't think that I could go on if anything would happen to my Lucy. She came into my life just right when I needed her and she means everything to me.

:(

Thanks so much for posting the obit Teresa - it's a small world isnt it. All the prayers are appreciated. The family decided on Thurs to "pull the plug" after the neurologist discovered there was no blood getting to her brain - meaning no brain activity. There was no hope, nothing could be done & she died they said very peacefully and looked like a little angel. She is at peace, no more pain and in Jesus arms. It is all just heartbreaking.

Please pray for her mama - her name is Debbie.

Cindy, please let Debbie know that we will all continue to pray for her and the rest of the family as they try to cope with this loss and come to peace with their decision.

I know you said Debbie was also injured in the accident. How is she doing and recovering from that? Please let us know if there are any other developments with the case.
