The nurses were helping her to breathe on her own. It’s quite a huge effort for her. Tina’s friend, Leah, and Clara were still there, with her. Leah has been taking Clara running. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Tina is not able to speak, but she can respond to some degree with head shakes and nods. When I came over to say hello, she reached her hand out to me and I held it for a while. It’s encouraging to see her communicating a little, and and showing some awareness, but overwhelmingly heart breaking. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The Saturday before the accident I heard her sing at church. She has a beautiful voice. Afterward we went to the ethnic festival, and had a great time.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I’m still in a state of shock, as I’m sure you are too. I can’t get over how a few tragic seconds can so drastically change the course of a life. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">below you will find an update from Mary Gordon.</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
