Please Pray For... (Updated)
« on: January 10, 2009, 04:13:31 AM »
my girlfriend's dad, Steve Folden of Memphis, and their family. He fell while bowling friday afternoon at 1 due to a massive stroke on his brain stem. He is slowly becoming brain dead along with an increasing fever to add to the paralysis. He fell minutes after shooting a 225 game with his daughter so he was enjoying life as it all happened. Doctors are unsure about whats going to happen but we truely need a miracle. I'd really appreciate it if you can keep the family in your prayers and thoughts.

Many thanks,

Jared


ON UPDATE:

Steve was pronouced brain dead at 1am this morning. His organs are being donated for use in and around TN. The family is holding up rather well all things considering. Thanks to everyone for their prayers!!!
