What we feared is true. Allyson's injury from the ruptured aneurysm proved to be fatal, and she never regained consciousness. Amy and her family arrived in Seattle last night and were able to spend time with her before she passed away. I am very grateful that Amy was able to be there with her parents and her sister. Amy called as they were leaving the hospital after midnight PST. She is sad, but is also between peaceful and numb.
Thank you for praying for Ally. Please continue praying for Amy, Marsha, and Mike. As you wake today, pray they will continue resting for several hours. Please pray for me and Ally's friends at Mars Hill Grad School as well.
I do not know what the next days will hold, but I am obviously eager to be by Amy's side. I stayed to get Amy to Seattle more quickly, and to await status. Amy and I decided to wait until tomorrow to make any decisions about my travel. Without knowing how long they will be in Seattle, it is difficult to know whether to fly out or to wait and join them in NC.
Again, we appreciate your continued prayers for Amy's family.
