ASHLEE'S WARRIORS: August 2011

Ashlee's Story

On November 28, 2010 Ashlee was involved in a very serious car accident in the early morning hours while on her way home.

It started with a fender bender on the 210 freeway, which disabled her vehicle on the freeway. A good samaritan stopped to advise that she and the other vehicle involved should pull to the shoulder (the dirt area).

While they were about to exchange information an oncoming drunk driver swerved onto the shoulder up the enbankment and landed his vehicle on our Ashlee, pinning her underneath.

Upon arrival of CHP & medical attention they lifted the vehicle off her body & once moved Ashlee lost pulse for a very long time! Until God returned her back to us. She has what is called Anoxic Brain Injury.

And this is where we are now just waiting.... And GOD IS IN CONTROL!

Heavenly Father - We first Thank you for all you have done, and we Pray that you would shed your Grace upon Ashlee and Our Family. Please allow your Love to Calm us and carry us thru this tribulation. Our Lives We Give to You Lord. In Jesus Name We Pray!!! AMEN!

Those Darn Infections!!!!

This past month has been very exciting and very emotional - Ashlee responded with her eyes to simple commands (July 2011)! She would blink her eyes when we would ask her too - we would say "Ashlee, blink your eyes twice for Mama and Daddy" and she would!!!!! She moved her right hand slowly on command - Then two weeks ago she started getting sick again!! Infections! It's inevitable - with all the ports she has in her body, the infections are bound to happen! :( We are with our baby girl everyday - we read to her - sing to her - and just talk about everything that's going on with family and friends (babies being born,who's pregnant,birthdays,graduations ect..) We just continue to Pray for God's Mercy! God's fingerprints have been everywhere - We feel HIM with us!!! Ashlee was off the ventilator for about 1 month then they placed her back on Sunday 8/14/11 - She is Strong - She is a Fighter!! One thing is for sure, ASHLEE is greatly loved!

“Because he loves me says the Lord I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation. “

- Psalm 91:14 -16
