Peggy's Accident

As most of you already know, Peggy was in a very bad crash on the night of May 1st. She was hit on the driver's door by a 27,000 lb tour bus.

Peggy sustained several skull fractures, bleeding and swelling of the brain, sheer damage to her brain, broken ribs, a collapsed lung and torn spleen. She was in a coma for almost two weeks, but is now in rehab and quickly regaining her memory and cognition. She's got a long row to hoe, but doctors and therapists say she is doing very well and expect a 95-99% neurological recovery. Physically she will be great, except for a missing spleen.

Thank you so much to all our family and friends who continue to provide their love, support and prayers.

So glad she is doing so well considering everything. I hear rehab is going well. We continue to keep her and all of you in our prayers. I was suprised not to see any airbags deployed in her van, what a mess!

I've seen the picture from the outside but, holy cow! That picture from the inside is crazy! We're all so glad she is doing better and recovering!
