Hi guys. Appreciate the kind e-mails from Pennsylvania and elsewhere. Have noted a number of "hits" from Wilkes-Barre, Scranton, White Haven, Noxen, Broomall, Drums, Mountain Top, Lancaster, Analomink, Berwyn, and Pittston. Welcome.
We've decided that Sarah deserves a site of her own. Effective immediately, most new posts will be placed in the brand spanking new Sarah's Place That's www.sarahgblog.blogspot.com
The new website will allow visitors, including new ones, to have an easier time finding what they need, without navigating through other things.
I'll keep all the old posts here, and will duplicate them on the new site.
Please bookmark Sarah's Place. It will be "linked" to this blog, on the right hand side. So, I'll meet you over there right now!.

Sarah Godfrey- December 4
Mrs. Casey
Mrs. Casey, mother to Brigid, grandmother to Sarah, and matriarch of the Casey family suffered a stroke a few days ago.
She passed last evening at about 7:00pm. The loss is great. Mrs "C" was full of life, love and was always upbeat. It won't be the same without her, but the house will
continue to be the place to gather. It will continue to be filled with the people she loved most..her family.
The family is in the process of making arrangements. Though specifics aren't yet known, Sharon believes that arrangements are being made with Lehmans, which is located on Hazle Street on the hill toward Ashley.
Sarah
Sarah continues to remain stable. This morning we believe she broke a fever she has had since her hospitalization, so that is great! She is also exhibiting more movement, so we continue to hope she starts responding to commands, and opens her eyes.
As always, the family thanks you all for your love, concern, support and your prayers. (Sharon)

I will soon create a separate "blog" page that will be exclusively for news about Sarah and the family. I think that this would make it easier for those concerned to read and to find information. Good night, everyone.

Sarah Godfrey - Dec 3
Sarah had a quiet evening [Saturday night] , and continues to remain "stable" which we are
pleased to report. She did sustain a broken jaw during the accident,
and on Wednesday of this week one of her Dr's will be exexamining the
situation to determine whether it can be wired at that time. They are
concerned about infection, and although we would hope they are able to
fix it on Wednesday, it may be something that will have to be addressed
down the road.

Sarah Godfrey- Dec 1
(from Pat)
It is about 10:00 p.m. on Friday, December 1 and time for an update on
Sarah.
Early this morning Dr. Pratt notified Brigid that Sarah would need a minor
procedure today. They were concerned about the overall appearance of
Sarah's wound at the back of her head. Not a critical situation but
something that needed proper attention. They took her to the operating room
in the late afternoon.
She was returned to her room relatively quickly and the procedure was
characterized as a success. They were able to clean and dress the affected
area. Moreover, they were able to get a good look at surfaces within the
incised area and were pleased with what they saw.

Sarah Godfrey Update- Nov 30
Thanks to Juliana, who advised me that the proper spelling is "Sarah".
Sarah has spent some quiet days in the hospital, which is good. She is gagging and coughing at times--which is also actually good in this context.
Additional tests are forthcoming, which will reveal more.

Sarah Godfrey- update
Sarah Godfrey was severely injured in an auto accident on Friday, November 17.
I heard today that tests indicate that it appears that she may maintain control of both arms and legs. At this stage, considering the scope of the injuries, that's good news.
This comes after some earlier good news.

Sarah Godfrey is a thirteen year old girl from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. She's an eighth-grade student at St. Boniface School.
This past Friday, she was hit by a car. She had just exited a vehicle after being dropped off. She sustained severe head injuries and was placed in a drug-induced coma.
"She is in a struggle for her life", says her uncle, Herb Godfrey. " She is a strong girl. Her vital signs are good, but we don't know the extent of the head injury".
Her mother Bridget is asking those concerned to pray for Sarah. She has made a "prayer map" with stars in all the places in the world where people are praying for Sarah. If you care to join the prayer map, please add a comment here, with your location, or send me an e-mail at bayridgephantom@gmail.com.

Sarah Godfrey - UPDATED
Heard on Saturday:
Sarah Godfrey is a 13 year old girl who was badly injured in an auto accident in Wilkes-Barre, PA exactly one week ago.
- she is now breathing on her own.
- they're unable to do some brain-function tests at present because to do so, they'd have to move her.
Hang in there, Sarah.

I heard the following as of Friday:
- bladder control returning
- there had been concern about her heart, but that has abated-heart seems fine
- some eye response observed
Will pass along additional information when I can.
