Please pray for Katie Parsons and her family. She is the 14 year old daughter of James and Christine Parsons in Candor. Katie was in a very bad farming accident yesterday (Saturday evening). She was helping put in fencing when her hair got caught in the PTO on the auger. When she reached down to pull it out she got tangled up in it. She was air lifted from the farm to Chapel Hill. After 10 hours of surgery her vitals are stable. Doctors are very optimistic about her survival. However, she has some loss. Katie was scalped and they could not save it. She has lost her right ear and 3 fingers. They are trying to save her arm. This is a critical time for blood flow to see what can be saved.
Her father is blaming himself heavily. The Parsons family has been in the farming business for 100's of years. They have the produce stand on the right as you come into Candor from Hwy. 211 East. Katie is a 14 year old girl in Candor, NC who had a tragic farming accident. She was seriously injured while working on her families farm. She has a long road ahead and many more surgeries still to endure. The family is with her and she has friends and family around. However, they are not able to work the farm, as they are taking care of her and her needs. They could all use some help. This group is set up to help out the family with prayers, thoughts, and financial assistance. Some may send cards, letters, or even money. Please do your part and help a great kid and a wonderful family. I was recently reminded that, in the worst of times, comes the best in people. Thanks for your support!!
