Missionary Hurt, Companion Died.

 

My nephew and his companion were in a car accident in Honduras.  His companion and the two other people in the car died.  My nephew is awake and talked to his mother.  He has several broken bones in his face.  My sister is flying out tonight.

 

Please also pray for his companions family.

 

Thank you.

 

 

Edit:  My nephew has broken ribs, several lacerations and several facial fractures.  He will require surgery when they get him back to Utah.  The Church flew my sister out last night at 1am.  We haven't heard anything new since then.

This is the story on KSL.  It doesn't say much.

My sister is now in Honduras with my nephew.  She's working to get him home quickly.  He needs surgery on the fractures in his face.  He has four bad lacerations, one on the back of his head, one on his forehead, one on his shoulder and another on his knee.  He was unconscious for about two hours so there is definitely at least a concussion.  And several broken ribs.

 

It is definitely a miracle he lived and that his injuries were not worse.  

 

Thank you to everyone who has been praying.

 

I am praying for the family of Elder Campos.  I know how hard it can be to lose a child.  My heart is breaking for them.
