Community Support - Family Attacked by Own Dog

This is from my sister Tammy, I wanted to pass it along in case anyone wanted to help in any way, even if for prayers alone.

My neighbor and his kids were attacked by their pit bull this weekend. They have twin boys (age 10) and one twin (Jake) was severely injured. A huge chunk of leg was taken out and his hand was also badly injured. Jake has a long and painful road ahead of him. Jake’s dad also received several injuries to his wrists, elbow and numerous bites from holding the pit bull down. Finally in an effort to stop the dog from attacking anyone else, they had no other choice but to shoot it. According to doctors, Jake will be in the hospital for a minimum of two weeks that will include intense surgeries and healing and that is not including any infection in the wounds that may occur.

This family has two other kids at home and one in school. The parents are trying to keep things normal as possible for the kids but given the circumstances, this will be a very long recovery process for this family.

I thought it would be a good idea to get some Restaurant Gift Cards in an effort to aid this family in their time of need. With everything going on and the hospital charges, the least we can do is possible help provide  food for the family at home.

Prayers are also very much appreciated. 


Thank you,
Tammy
