Girls, I know I've been asking for lots of prayers recently but I could use a few more.
One of my childhood friends/ family friends was killed in a motorcycle accident last night. He lost control of his bike and stupidly wasn't wearing his helmet. They resuscitated him but he was braindead.
My parents are devested as am I. Our parents are best friends and biking is close to our heart as my dad is a biker.
My friend, Mikel, JUST got married in October of last year and his wife delievered a sweet baby boy not even a month ago.
Please pray for him, his wife Allison, his parents, his friends, and for my family. We are going to try to make it to his funeral this weekend but not sure if we can afford the plane ticket.
To vent even more (forgive me, girls).. I feel like the last 2 years of my life have been filled with tragic, unexpected deaths that have really rocked us.
1. My best friend's dad was killed in the Haiti earthquake will doing Missonary work. Her dad and I were close and it's terrible to see the effect his death has had on my best friend.
2. My cousin was murdered by her boyfriend in front of their child. He hit her with his car and dragged her body down the road.
3. Another close friends' mom died randomly one day. No one found her for 3 weeks..
And now Mikel makes 4. I feel like I don't even get time to mourn and collect myself before someone else is taken.
I'm sorry for complaining and feeling sorry for myself during this time. I just feel emotionally drained. Everytime the phone rings I feel like I'm going to get terrible news.
If you've read this far, thank you. I appreciate any prayers.
