• One week ago tonight B, a boy my daughter dated last summer crashed his car. They wrapped the car around a power pole, took it out and went through a metal fence. It is estimated they were travelling at 120 klicks an hour. The Jaws of Life had to be used to get him and his two passengers out of the vehicle. B broke his neck and back, as well as other life threatening injures. One passenger also broke his back, and I'm not sure about the specific injuries to the third boy. I remember hearing about shattered bones, battered organs and crushed faces before I had to tune out the details. I know they were all in critical condition. B was flown to Vancouver to be treated. Apparently he can now wiggle the toes of one foot. That is a very encouraging sign. Annie is going to Vancouver next Thursday to visit him. Please keep these 3 boys in your thoughts and prayers. They each have a long hard road ahead of them.
