Dear Forum Friends

<p>Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers during the upcoming surgery and recovery. A child in a serious car accident is something we all fear, but never actually think will happen. Thank goodness for miracles. Take of yourself.</p>

<p>Soozie,</p>

<p>Best wishes to your daughter for a full and speedy recovery. Be sure to take care of yourself as well, now that the immediate crisis seems to have passed. You wll both be in my prayers.</p>

<p>Susan: God Bless.</p>

<p>I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers</p>

<p>Hi Susan - please wish you daughter all the best and give her a huge hug. Please let me know if I can help in VT (live in Boston but visit my mother-in-law in Burlington).</p>

<p>Susan,
I am so sorry to hear about your daughter's accident. Even though I don't know you in real life, you and your family are still an important part of my life, and it hurts to hear what you and your family are going through.</p>

<p>My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this diffiicult time. I appreciate your taking the time to let us know what is going on with your life. I send every wish for a speedy recovery for your daughter. Please continue to remember that you have friends here who can cheer, support and encourage you during this stressful time.</p>

<p>What a harrowing ordeal for everyone, and what a brave girl to pull through with so much optimism and hope! Sending strength to you all as you work your way through the coming trials and recovery. It is comforting to know her prognosis is so good! Take care of yourself as you care for the others who need you, Susan.</p>

<p>Soozie I'm here for you too along with the rest of the CC group. I'm sure it won't be long before your d is entertaining the staff at the hospital. Your family will be in my thoughts as you work your way through this difficult time.
Best wishes,
andi</p>

<p>Ditto. We're sending healing thoughts from here.</p>

<p>We Will Be Praying For Her Recovery.</p>

<p>Dear Susan, I am so sorry to hear about the accident, but so very relieved that your daughter is going to be okay. You have the wisdom, strength and courage to help your daughter heal quickly, but remember to take care of yourself--the person most easily forgotten in times of stress! Sending a prayer for healing and comfort your way, and you will be in my thoughts.</p>

<p>Susan -- So sorry to hear about your daughter's accident and your family's ordeal. You're in our thoughts and prayers.</p>

<p>Many blessings - your daughter is very brave, best wishes for her full and complete recovery and lots of leading roles in the years to come!</p>

<p>Darling Sooze; Big hugs and prayers from the South Pacific. Thrilled to hear that she is coming out of ICU. Worried about you, driving back and forth, exhausted. Can you find a hotel or BnB with a weekly rate? Or a friend who will be a chauffer and let you sleep in the back? I'm sure folks are offering help--try to accept as much as possible. Especially during these early weeks when you are in a state of semi-shock. (After reading your post, I am in a state of shock).</p>

<p>Don't worry about responding to folks. Everyone understands.</p>

<p>About 18 months ago, my best Kiwi friend was in the stands at an equestrian event and, from across the field, watched her daughter's horse fly over a jump upside down. He landed on her gorgeous, 16 year old daughter. She spent weeks and weeks in the hospital but she recovered fully and is now doing law at uni.</p>

<p>My friend was at her bedside night and day, exhausted. She said the experience forged an extraordinary bond between them. Neither of them ever expected that mother would have to, once again, help bath and feed nearly grown daughter. </p>

<p>Love to the family.....</p>

<p>Susan, I enjoy your posts and I don't have a kid in musical theater. I am sorry to read about your daughter's accident.
I am wishing her a speedy recovery. The best to her, you, and the rest of your family.</p>

<p>Susan,</p>

<p>Few of us on CC have had the pleasure of meeting you in person or of meeting your daughter at all. But just as you say people near and far care deeply for your daughter, so do all of us on CC care deeply for the two of you and, by extension, your entire family. The outpouring here shows that. It's more than the fact that you're living through something that we -- all posters here, parents and students alike -- dread on daily basis.</p>

<p>OMG...just saw this. Hugs and prayers, Susan.</p>

<p>I'm new to this board and unfamiliar with you and your family, but thank you anyway for informing those who do know you about the accident. Best wishes to your daughter for a speedy recovery.</p>

<p>OMG! Susan, I am so sorry to hear about that. I can only imagine how horrible your drive was after hearing that news. I would have been a basket-case!<br>
Great to hear that your lovely D will be able to recover and that older D will be able to visit too.
My prayers will be with your family. </p>

<p>Suzy (SoozieID ;) )</p>

<p>Big hugs, warm wishes. I wish I was closer to serve you hot chocolate, and cover your special dtr with a wondeful VT quilt. Won't the hospital provide you with a cot, so you can get some sleep?</p>
