My friend and his wife were on a trip (the first in about 20 years of marriage) to see the fall colours about 700 kms from home. On sat I went to my cousins' for Navarathri family get together. At 6 pm my friend called me to inform that his only daughter aged 19 along with a friend were hit by a truck and that his daughter was in the ICU after a brain surgery. I drove to the hospital 100 kms away praying to HIM that the kids come out safely. The other girls dad was there who told me that initially the doctors did not have any hope. At 8 pm the docs checked and said that the pupils were dialating and that she was responding to physical touch, even under heavy sedation. The doc gave 24 hrs to give his next opinion, as bleeding from the brain was continuing. On sunday we were at a local temple performing abhishekham for amman. While the aarthi was being performed, my friend, who took a cab to reach the hospital called to inform that the girl has spoken and that all the tubes we removed. Today she had semi solid food and is moved to a semi ward out of the ICU. The other girl has been operated on her legs to put in steel rods and hold the knee today. I am sure HIS divine touch to the needy is proved, yet again.

An update: The girl's dad just called to inform that she wanted rasam rice and aalu which my wife generally makes for her. I was also informed that the surgery of the leg is also over and that that girl is also recovering well though she has to have the cast for 4 weeks.

Thanks for the prayers. Both the kids are doing great. The one with the head injury has been talking and taking semi solid food. A part of her skull that was removed to control the bleeding will be put back in after 3 months. The parents are currently waiting for the doctor to come. The one with the leg injury has had steel rods inserted to retain her knee in place. Both the girls are going to undergo extremely hard physical and mental therapies. With HIS blessings and the prayers done by one and all, I am sure they will come out of this, in a short period. The docs are surprised as to how a hopeless case 72 hours ago can talk, eat, recognize people etc. They don't know about HIM!!

The latest update is that she is able to lift both legs together, same with arms, recognize people, speak clearly etc. The swelling is also going down. The doctors are stating that it is no short of a MIRACLE that a patient with such an injury recover this fast. We, the followers of HIM know where this miracle stems from. The girl has started eating normal diet but has been permitted to walk, for now. The other girl is recovering well too. Her surgery involved putting the broken knee cap and a couple of bones in place. She has to be in cast for 6-8 weeks after which she will have to undergo a painful regime of physiotherapy, which I am sure, will be painless, again with HIM hand over her

I met the girl yesterday. Apparently, her friend who was hit on the leg, was discharged but will undergo intensive physiotherapy to regain the full use of her leg. My friend's daughter has been moved to an hospital closer to their home. She has started walking, baby steps I must say. All the vital parameters are good. The new hospital did discover an hairline fracture above her left ear (she was hit on the right side), which is being treated with steroids. Once the session is completed, they will test for loss of hearing. But I am sure that with HIS blessings on her, she will come out of this too. As of now, she still remains in the hospital. After recovering fully physically, she will be moved to Toronto General hospital in their neurological rehabilitation unit as an in-patient. Here, her emotional balance will be evaluated for a few days after which she will get time outs to go out, like 3 hrs, 6 hrs etc. Once they feel she can be independent, she will be discharged but continue to take counselling etc as an out-patient. We only hope and pray that the pace of recovery with HIS blessings continue.
Thanks to each one of you for your prayers.

My friend's daughter underwent surgery to replace the part of skull that was removed. The doctors are surprised how this bone, kept in artificial blood, could stay for so long, without deterioration. They were were also planning to use medical cement, to cover the opening. The girl is back on a speedy road to recovery, planning to take up courses in the summer, to gain atleast a part of the time she lost recovering. With HIS hand above her, I was more than confident that she will be protected. Her friend, who broke her leg, was back in her class, within a month of the accident.
Thanks for all the prayers!!
