Kara had a stroke...

I'm just going to copy this from my facebook status as it's the most up to date and I don't have time to type it all out....

Okay people, we got the charges for our phones, so those of you who have our numbers are welcome to call. Please do not call the hospital phone, it is very loud and on the other side of the room. Kara did indeed have a small stroke and her right arm isn't quite numb, but it does have a feeling of resistence when she moves it. The right side of her face is slightly numb, but not paralyzed. Primarily her fine motor skills are slightly affected. A full recovery is expected. If anybody wants to come up here, message us or call us and we will give you the room number. Later on we will give more information and answer as many questions as we can. Again, thank you all. Stan and Kara

22 years old is WAY to young to be going through this.

If you read this - you think this, so it is a prayer. I ask that all who read this think it together

KARA - we are here.

If it is your time we can do nothing about it but if it is not and we can call you back - we call you!
Please do not leave us, be strong as you can! We love you, and do not want you to go away
Take from our strength if you can borrow our spiritual essense so that you can hang on and come back to us
LIVE with us once again and return so that whatever is wrong in your body can be healed
Come to us if the light does not call you so strongly that it seems that it is your time....
Come home again - because we love you and want you back with us as long as you can be here among us
KNOW that whatever we can do we will
We care for you!
But if you can't find the way back - you will be cared for!
And yet still we stand as beacons on the road home so that you can follow us back here!
We will always love you
You will always be remembered just as you are
And we will come see you one day
But this is not your time - COME!
Return to us.....

AMEN

Wow, that is brutal news!

I am very sorry to hear this.

At her young age she has very good chances of a full recovery.

I will be thinking of you wishing you the very best!
