KWR: Need prayer/positive thoughts!

I've been MIA for a while, mainly because I've been working really long hours and still trying to plan this wedding in the few hours between work, gym, and bedtime. I have no idea how I'm going to get the rest of the planning done in just 2 months! Anyways, life is getting really crazy and stressful! Prayer would be much appreciated!

On Saturday, one of my older brothers was snow tubing with a few friends when the tube hit a jump (accidentally) and flipped over. He says he heard a "snap", and both his arms were numb. The right arm was numb for over 20 minutes. He finally went to the hospital later that night, and they took - and sent him home. Radiologist called him in the morning and wanted him to come in ASAP. It turns out he broke his neck in the C7 area. Basically that is the vertebrae that controls all mobility. So far he still has full mobility but is completely strapped to the bed (except for his arms), as moving the wrong way could trigger paralysis. He's still a small hospitall waiting to be transferred to Vancouver as soon as there is a bed available. Apparently, the first 48 hours is critical, and those 48 are now over! Please pray that a bed opens soon, and that he will heal quickly and without paralysis.

Also, FI just found out today that he is being laid off after next week. He could go on un-employment, but he wouldn't be getting near enough to finish paying for the wedding, and barely enough to pay the bills. There is a slight possibility that he may be able to get on with my oldest brother's boss, so we're really hoping that happens. It's a much better job than the one he has now, with better hours, better pay, and benefits.

TIA!

First off my prayers goes out to you and your family. I will keep you in my prayers constantly.

WEDDING PLANNING:

I can only imagine the stress you are going through but remember to keep the faith knowing that things will work out in due time.  I'm wishing you all the best with this and it will get done long before your wedding.  You will be amazed of how everything turns around.

BROTHER:

OMG, I am lost for words.  I will say this though...God is good because he made it through thus far.  My parents taught me that there is no distance in prayer.  Believe it or not your brother is already healed.  He will get through this 'his test' and it will be turned into a testimony.   This is such a tragedy but once there is life there is hope.  I just know that his end story will be great. 

FI:

Its amazing how everything happens at once.  However, behind every dark clouds are silver lining.  So his situation will be turning around also.  Sending you loads of support, positivity, love and hugs for you during this time.  It will all turn out good.  Please keep us posted whenever you have time to.

Oh you poor little pumpkin! 

Sending prayers for your brother's full and healthy recovery.   Waiting on beds drives me crazy, so I'm hoping comes up sooner rather than later. 

Keeping my fingers crossed for your FI and his possibly employment! 

Big hugs!
