For those who don't know me, I am Vicki's sister. I want to extend a very heartfelt thanks to Melissa Golden for setting this up so that we can communicate Vicki's status to friends and family in a more efficient manner.
Vicki is stable yet still critical. She does open her eyes several times a day and acknowledges yes or no questions. She is on a lot of pain medication and stays sedated most of the time. Sometimes when she awakens she is very uncomfortable and wants to sit up or move and we have to remind her of her injuries and why she can't move. She is still on the ventilator and a tracheotomy was performed today. Kidney function and lung infections due to the vent continue to be concerns.
On behalf of the family I would like to express our most sincere appreciation for the outpouring of love and support that has been shown during this very difficult time.

Vicki, You're a Fighter, Survivor, Daughter of God....YOU can overcome with the GREATEST Physician! My prayers are daily!!! In the name of Christ Jesus!! LOVE
Vicki, although I don't know you very well, my friendship with Becky and Holly has been an inspiration as to the strength of the people in your family. One thing that has amazed me is your incredible ability to work in the most delicious chocolate cake as a Relief Society object lesson almost every time! I have come to look forward to it when you teach and of course, it always comes with a great message.
I wanted to leave you with this, it's called, "Prayer of Protection" and it has recently given great strength through my own trials:
The light of God surrounds you.
The love of God enfolds you.
The power of God protects you.
The presence of God watches over you.
Wherever you are, God is.
And all is well.
