As you know, my parents were involved in a serious car accident just over 3 months ago. Well, this past weekend, my mom's brother & sister-in-law were involved in a serious motorcycle accident near their home in VA. From what I understand, someone backed out of their driveway & into them. They are in stable condition at Roanoke Memorial Hospital, but lots of prayers are still needed.
Uncle Jerry has broken ribs & a broken collar bone. He has a big laceration on his head that required a blood transfusion. Also, the impact of the crash caused him to have a heart attack, so they put a stint in to help with that.
Aunt Penny was thrown from the motorcycle & suffered a concussion, black eye, & road rash to the face. There's blood on the brain, which they say is typical of her injury; but she's having some memory problems which is cause for concern.
Thankfully, they were both wearing helmets (not full ones though, just half ones).
We're not sure how long they will be in the hospital, but probably through the end of the week. If you'd like to send a card, here's their home address. I'm sure their daughters will be by the house some this week & deliver any cards they receive.

My grandmother is understandably upset as both her children have been involved in serious accidents in the last few months. I'll update here as I hear more information, but please keep my family in your prayers!
Thanks!
