YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE A LISTEN!

If you want to hear the National Anthem done to perfection by a group of young Ladies that will give you goose bumps, turn up the sound and sit back, they should have been chosen for the Super Bowl. 
  
This is at a Texas Tech University Basketball game, Feb 9th, our National Anthem being sung by five young ladies. I've never heard it performed better than this! An entire arena remains completely silent throughout the entire song. I mean you could hear a pin drop. 

COWBOY STADIUM UPDATE

Remember that crane accident in Cowboy Stadium? Well, here is an update sent in by Amy in San Antonio...

"Saturday morning update: 
Wes had to be put back under sedation and on the ventilator last night b/c he was so worn down from yesterdays activities.  All the nurses and Drs. say that he is one STRONG boy.  He is very muscular and they are having a tough time controlling his body.  He had a peaceful night.  This morning they have already tried to decrease the sedation, HE OPENED HIS EYES!!!  However, he became extremely violent and they were forced to immediately start the sedation again.  My dad said that this is joyous b/c this is the first time he has opened his eyes, but devastating b/c he doesn't know what is going on and it is evident that he is extremely frightened.  He was biting down on his ventilator tube and was turning beet red.  Dad is very upset and is not handling this part very well.  Pray for him and mom.  Our prayer today is that Wes will have peace today and understand that he is not in trouble while in restraints but that it is for his own well being.  Also pray that when they do wake him up again that he will begin to follow commands."

CLOSE TO HOME

Yesterday, a crane crashed at Cowboy Stadium in our home town of Arlington, TX. Unfortunately, someone close to us was involved!

One of my besties, Amy Sweeney, just sent this to me:

"Please pray for us.  My brother, Wesley Harlow, was the man critically hurt at the cowboys stadium today.  He was care-flighted to Baylor Hospital and we have been given a high security status.  The media is everywhere!  He is still listed as critical and they are telling us at this point his injuries are still considered life threatening.  They say the next three days will be the most critical and will help us know what we are facing.  He had severe head trauma, internal injuries, collapsed lung, multiple facial fractures, and eye trauma.  He is not awake and they have him in a drug induced paralyzed state.  We have been given open access to see him whenever we want, so that is helping us.  However, it is horrible to just stand there and stare at him and feel completely helpless.  PLEASE PRAY!!!  My Mom and Dad made it here safely from Houston and have set up camp at the hospital.  At this point, pray that his brain injuries will heal and that he will have no ill effects.  Also pray that there is no sight loss from the eye damage. 

Thanks for thinking of us and especially Wes!"

UPDATE:

"This is from Mitch (Burleson C.O.P.S. member) & Gillian Duck.  This update was at 2:31am today.  I have since talked to Mitch less than an hour ago and he wanted me to let everyone know that the radio station is reporting that Wes is deceased BUT HE IS NOT DECEASED!!!!  At this time they don't need us to do anything EXCEPT PRAY for them that everything will be okay!!  Mitch is keeping me posted and I will continue to keep you posted as I get updates.  If you have any other questions, feel free to email or call me."

Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers today!
