Beth Ann Amos Update

Hey all,

Just got this message from Diane Amos. They thank everyone for the prayers.

While doing P.T. putting down a telephone pole type log after it was over their heads (5 work together) the group lost coordination and dropped the log on Beth Anne's leg. Both bones were broken between her knee and ankle. We had her transferred to N. Fulton to be seen and operated on by a ortho dr. we knew and trusted. During the surgery, while putting in the rod the bone shattered. He placed a metal plate on each side of the fragments, bolted the plates into the bones above and below the fracture and connected the bolts to a fixation device outside her leg. We see a trauma ortho specialist Monday and will probably have another surgery Tuesday.

Thank you for all your prayers... that's what we need most now. Pray for guidance in how to proceed with care, for complete healing and for direction in what to do regarding school and the future... also to see God's LOVING hand in all this (it's kinda hard to see sometimes).

Let's work harder at keeping them in our prayers!

Jason
