Eric Medlen NHRA funny car driver was in a horrible accident while testing in Florida. He is a hometown boy and we are all praying he is going to pull through. He is currently in critical condition and hanging on.
He is a family friend and in 1991 we lost a beautiful 4 year to cancer. Eric was a pall bearer for her. I have found out this morning that her mother is completely devastated by Eric's recent accident that she has taken to her bed. I have always been open to her because she has never been the same since her daughter passed. I never had children but as some of you here can attest to losing a child would like be losing a huge part of yourself. She drinks alot and everyone just lets her....really who is to judge how someone reacts to this sort of painful loss?? That edge she was on is now gone and she has crashed and burned over Eric's accident. She has known him since he was a child and it was the straw that broke the camel's back.
I need your prayers for Eric and the ripple effect that has been felt in his hometown. I can only hope that she is able to find the strength to deal with this.
Thanks in advance for you support.
