Sydney and Kaitlyn medical fund

Sydney is a young, vibrant, beautiful woman, she is active in her church and just graduated highschool this May.  For those who don't know Sydney was in an F2 tornado in Tulsa on 8/6! She was at Whataburger on 41st and I 44 .She wasn't even aware that she was hit by tornado, all she knew was that the glass had shattered all at one time throughout the whole building. A large piece of metal entered her body on the lower part of her bottom, and went 17 centimeters to the middle of her back. Somehow missing all of her vital organs, colon, intestines, kidneys, stopping fractions of an inch away from her spine! So this piece of metal tunneled a hole from her bottom to her middle of her back .She has a massive blood clot in the middle of her back ,where the blood is pooling from the cut, they had to put a drain tube in her. She's totally on bed rest which makes it really hard because they were supposed to be moving her into her dorm room at OSU this week .I know God will provide all the answers and the ways around all these things, I would also like to say Thank You to her best friend Kaitlyn !! She SAVED Sydney life. Sidney was in shock due to this metal going inside of her, and the wind was blowing her away!!! Katelyn literally jumped on Sydney back and hung on to her until the danger was over!!! At one point when they were in the eye of the tornado, Sidney got up and started to try to walk around, and Kaitlyn got her back down again! Sydney is unable to work at this time, due to medical reasons. Any amount that you can help with would be a blessing for her at this time as she continues the healing process prepares for rehabilitation, and hopefully get to college at OSU sometime this next year.  Her family is missing work to stay home and help take care of her. We thank all of you.
