Jen's coming home!!

It's tough to leave her babies, but Elijah, Jonas and Tamra have been under amazing care at home. Knowing her family is in such capable hands has allowed Jen to take those moments needed to process and gain the perspective she needs to face the next few days, weeks, months, however long her family's road turns out to be. Two nights in the hospital have done her wonders. She looks well rested and is ready to come home today!!


There are roughly eight pins and a plate running the length of Jen's forearm with an external temporary pin in place until the bones become more stable. Her Mother-in-law said that she saw the x-rays and both bones in Jen's forearm were broken in multiple places and her wrist was pretty much crushed. Jen was the one who climbed to the road to flag down help on the highway- it's amazing what a Mother can do despite her own pain. She is a strong woman, mother, wife, friend, and individual. She's been blessed so far with capable doctors and a loving support team. Keep her recovery in your thoughts.

I'm looking for a freezer for my brothers family. It would be great for Jen and the family to receive all the pre-made meals that Her, Sarah, and my church are offering. The problem is we just don't have a place to put them, so for now we can mostly only take nonperishable's. If anyone has one they'd like to loan out, sell cheap, or donate, Please let me know.

Thanks, Moriah
