Please pray for my sister. She's been in an accident. She's headed into surgery. There's a possibility that she'll be paralyzed...or worse. Please pray for her.
I'm waiting to board my plane to be with her. I used to be a surgeon and now I feel so helpless. I'm not there and I can't do anything. I'm so scared for her,for all of us.
I just don't even know what to say. Just please pray. I'll update as I can. Thanks everyone.

Thank you so very much. We arrived home safely. My brother met us at the airport (Pgh,Pa to Brussels,Belgium). We went to the hospital where my mum,bil and other brothers were waiting. my sister (Kim) was in surgery.
It went well. She is doing well!!!
I was allowed to look at her chart,scans etc. The surgery went quickly and cleanly. Her surgeon discovered it was not as bad as thought once he opened her. Thank God!
It went well with a single minor complication. She's now recovering,in pain but she has some feeling in all extremities. It can take up to a year for full recovery but barring complications she'll be fine.
I can't begin to thank you all enough. I truly believe without everyone's prayers the outcome would've been much worse. Thank you all a million times.
She has a long road ahead,regaining feeling,physical therapy,pain but she'll get there. For now she's sleeping a lot.😊 I'm headed that way myself, I've recently finished radiation which wore me out. The long flight and stress didn't help and I'm exhausted. But so very grateful that my sister will be ok and for everyone's prayers.
Thank you.😊,
