Please pray for Jessica Hulcy - Unconscious After Collision with a Fire Truck

Jessica Hulcy has just been in a traffic accident; she was broadsided by a fire truck. She is alive but badly hurt, in critical condition but stable. Her lungs are collapsed. She has no broken bones. There is some brain trauma but nothing to operate on. She is unconscious. Back in the most challenging days of home schooling there were few options for curriculum. Abeka, BJU or write your own. Two neighbors wrote their own and developed one of the first widely used curriculums written for home education... vs a classroom. Jessica Hulcy, author of KONOS and national speaker... and friend of Texas home school families... Please keep her, the family and doctors in your prayers...

Her husband's name is Wade.

Here is an update from the Konos boards...


Dear KONOS family,



I just spoke with Wade at the hospital. They are continuing to run tests on
Jessica, to determine her injuries. They have recently 'discovered' another
broken bone in her arm, and are performing xrays on both the right and left
legs due to the swelling and bruising. They took her in at 7 pm to perform
another CAT scan, and Wade is still awaiting the results. A good family
friend/doctor is at the hospital with Wade, helping Wade to interpret the
situation. For the past two hours, Jessica has been able to maintain her
blood pressure level on her own without medication - a real praise! She is
on a breathing tube, and the doctors have classified her brain activity at a
Level 2 - she will respond to touch, but cannot hold up two fingers at their
request.



Wade said she opened her eyes a bit when she heard his voice as he arrived
in her room. She is very 'banged up' and needs much healing. Please
continue to lift the family and doctors up in your prayers. Thank you all
from the Hulcy family for your prayers, love, and phone calls.
