PRAYER REQUEST FOR MARY CARVER

RE: Prayer Request

MARY CARVER / wlc1939@att.net
Brother Carver called me yesterday [Wednesday] to tell me that Mary was involved in a one-car accident on Tuesday afternoon. She apparently passed out for some reason. According to a witness who was behind her, she suddenly veered out of her lane, crossed the other lane, and off the road. From what I understand from Brother Carver, she may have overturned the vehicle. He said she was hanging upside down by her shoulder straps and had to be cut out of the vehicle. She was taken to Greenville Memorial Hospital. He didn’t know at that time how extensive the injuries are. He did send me a brief email last night: “God is so good. I...appreciate all the prayers for Mary in the trauma that she has suffered. God performed a miracle now we wait to see if her back elbow and leg are broken. Continue to keep us in your prayers.” The ‘miracle’ to which he refers is the protection the Lord gave her from any more serious injury than she has suffered. Please continue praying to God for their many needs from the several adversities they have suffered, especially since January with his own heart attack and stroke.

UPDATE: Friday evening / 7 May
Brother Parks,
Good evening. First, the Carver family appreciates all the continued prayers that have been lifted on our behalf. It has truly been a roller coaster, but through it all, our family has drawn closer and closer. Mom came home from the hospital this afternoon with no broken bones, no fractures, sprains, etc. She is getting along pretty well. Dad is hanging in there; however, he did state this evening that the physical therapist told him, either today or yesterday, that if he doesn't slow down and stop doing so much that he is going to suffer another heart attack. Please pray that he slows down.
Again, we all appreciate your prayers.
Sincerely, The Carver Family
