Please pray for a friend of mine who was in a bad car accident 2 weeks ago. She is now paralyzed from the waist down and in rehab her name is Katie. I will try to keep you updated when I get some updates

What a horrible Dr. If that's what they're saying, they shouldn't be. Are they God? Could that be the worst possible outcome? Absolutely. Is it likely? Possibly. Nobody knows what will come from hard work and determination. There is always hope!
If you don't try, you fail.

dr. looks at a x-rays and sees bad. They don't see the person she is a very strong young woman. I don't know how bad her spinal cord was damage but the she is very lucky to be alive the car was distroyed. If she never does walk again she has a very good support syetem of famliy and friends. I know she will pull thought this ok

X-rays do not tell the story. Get word to her no one knows what she can learn to do. Send her Guido's link, myscirecovery.com. Not to give false hope, but to keep an open mind.

When I get to talk to her we don't live near her I hope to get in touch when she gets done rehab. Most of the updates I get right now are from her facebook page. Last time I know she is doing good and rehab is going great.
