Steph, my cuz

My sweet cousin, Stephanie and her husband were involved in a small plane crash on Saturday night, (August 16, 2008) in Arizona. They have 4 little kids at home that are missing them very much. The pilot passed away and Stephanie and Christian were both burned very badly and are in critical condition. Christian has a lower back fracture and 30% of his body has 3rd degree burns on it. Stephanie is in worse shape with 80% of her body covered in 3rd degree burns. She is estimated to be in the hospital for 3-5 months, have 1-2 months of inpatient therapy, and a year of intensive work. She will have to re-learn to walk, use her tendons and muscles, and use her fingers. She will have to have 10-12 surgeries if not more. Her life will never be the same. It makes me so sad to think about her. I hope that she will be okay and that she will live to raise her 4 children. Our prayers are with them. Updates on her blog... welovecubby.blogspot.com. Good luck guys. We love you!

Casey, I can't believe she is your cousin. Isn't her blog NieNie? Everyone has a little link on their blog for her and her husband. I have read their story and looked on their blog several times. So sad! It's nice to know that so many people are praying for them.
