November 17, 2012
Susan Donovane was recently involved in a tragic accident.
She was run over by her own car while checking an engine noise. The car apparently slipped into gear while she was standing in front of it.
Susan is suffering from a crushed pelvis, bleeding lungs, a broken collar bone, crushed and broken ribs just to name a few injuries. They tried to do surgery on her pelvis yesterday but had to stop because her lung collapsed and blood pressure was dangerously low. They put a feeding tube in and she is in a medically induced coma to help her pain and labored breathing.
She is at very high risk of blood clots because of heavy smoking and taking hormones. Please say a prayer for her. If she gets through the roughest part, it’s going to be a very long road to recovery. The doctors are talking 10 weeks in the hospital and then rehab. She was self employed as a MHP handy person and has no medical insurance.
Please send your kind thoughts and prayers.
