This past weekend, a beautiful, little Alaskan girl name Shelby did what kids across America look forward to doing during the long, cold winter months: She went sledding. What should have been a fun, carefree event suddenly turned tragic when she was involved in a sledding accident and had to be airlifted to the hospital. Shelby suffered a broken back, loss of feeling in her legs and is recovering following an extensive surgery. This is a strong, brave little girl who has her whole life in front of her, and God sparred her life for a purpose. Her surviving this accident is indeed a miracle and is living proof that both God and miracles do exist. You just have to believe and hold steadfast to your faith!!!
Please pray for Shelby, her parents (Mitch and Jessica) and the rest of her family during this time. They are amazing individuals, and I am proud and honored to call them friends!!! For those of you who do not know Jessica, she is Sarah Palin's fabulously talented hair dresser, phenomenal entrepreneur and friend of this blog. I have a feeling Shelby gets her fighting spirit from her mama bear.
Friends of Shelby is an official Facebook page that has been set up as a way for individuals to voice their support and send kind words to Shelby as she begins, what will be, a long, slow recovery process. There is also a box on this page that individuals can click to donate to cover the expensive medical bills. Any little bit helps. Please spread the word and make sure to visit this page today. Let's help Shelby!!!
Thanks so much and God bless!!!
