Note from Stephanie:
Dear Friends,

Thank you ever so much for all your prayers. It is extremely comforting to know that people are praying for Peter and for us. I have a request. Peter has been in ICU for 3 weeks and they have done everything they can for him. Now he needs to move to a acute brain rehab facility. The only facility right now that will take Peter in his limited condition and with a ventilator is about 6 hours from us in Mount Vernon, MO. That means that I will have to leave the rest of the children and move into a dorm next to the facility. This news has severely saddened 2 of my children to the point of constant tears. I am trying my best to figure out how to lessen this separation. I will be gone at least for 6 weeks, maybe more. It's tough, because Peter needs me, but so do my other 6 children still at home. So....would anyone like to have their children write a letter to some of my children? They could tell them about themselves, their hobbies, and that they are praying for Peter and our family. I won't be here to see that they respond or know if they do, but getting something in the mail might help the 13, 10, and 7 year old especially. I know the kids love to run down our gravel lane to see what the mailman brought. The 16 year old will be "Mom" while I'm gone, so I know she could use some moral support and know that someone is praying for her strength also. Thanks so much for your support.

Thank you so much! It looks like I will leave with Peter on Wednesday. He will go by ambulance and I will follow in my car. I can't tell you how much this means to me. It is heart-wrenching to leave the children for so long. I am just forcing myself not to dwell on it.
Blessings,
Stephanie

Stephanie--If your husband is a Knight of Columbus or if you know of some, have someone contact your local group or the one in Mt. Vernon so they can be of help to you--they seem to really come together to help when they can. Also, hoping your parish will provide some meals to help out your 16 year old.   Praying for you all.

According to Peter's CaringBridge journal (which Stephanie writes), she is near his rehab facility and spending every day with him. His brain injury has affected his vision and his ability to control his anger, and his progress is very slow (good news - there actually is progress). Please keep praying for him and for Stephanie.

This is very hard on the whole family, so they need lots of prayer, too.
