Mark Gates forward this note that was sent to Mark and Bob’s charismatic prayer group in Louisville. Miracles DO happen and I am certain everyone’s prayers had a lot to do with this. They are not out of the woods but certainly a major positive development. Thank you all for all your wishes and prayers for Bob and Linda. I will see if I can forward all your wishes to him.
‘UPDATE: Fr. Tony’s pastoral assistant reached out to their daughter Lauren:
It is so sweet of you to check on them. Yes, they were in an accident yesterday. Mom has some bruising and dad has a brain bleed. He went in yesterday and they expected to do brain surgery, and everyone started praying, 2 repeat CT scans later showed that the bleeding did not spread. Neurologists called it a miracle and they can’t explain it, because the bleed was so significant. So we are very very grateful. He has a broken collarbone and headache but I think they’re going to send him home in a few days. No need for father Tony to visit but we appreciate it so much! Also, Mom has kidney cancer and they’re removing her kidney early January, so if you all could keep both of them in your prayers, we’d really appreciate it! Thank you!“
