Our neice Marrissa has been severly injured in Iraq. She was a gunner on a humvee which went over and land mine and ended upside down. She has broken bones in arms and legs. They have amputated her left foot. She has brain damage, too early to tell how much.We are waiting for more news.
Thank you,
Dawn0
I'll be thinking of you and hoping for good news.

I am so very sorry to hear of your bad news. I hope that future news will be more encouraging for you, your family and Marrissa. You will all be in my thoughts.
She is young, bones mend, prosthetics are astonishing these days; let's hope her brain also heals rapidly.

My heart pour out to you and to your courageous neice, Marrissa. I will say prayers for her and dedicate any virtue I have to her so she may rapidly heal and her brain is not too bad.
This war is so horrible I cannot imagine how it feels for families to have their kids, and grandchildren, neices and nephews over there fighting. I will pray for the fighting to stop every day till it stops.
