I’m getting word that Senator Harry Reid’s wife and daughter have been in a very serious car wreck.
It’s one thing to take shots as the man as a politician, but right now we should be praying for him and his family.

And then went back to the meeting.
janis (Diary) Thursday, March 11th at 10:15PM EST (link)I hope that there were other family members there to stay with the injured women. Extensive experience with family members in the hospital has taught me that having a loved one there to keep track of what’s happening and to just offer the comfort of a familiar face is invaluable.
Absolutely, Erick.

bk (Diary) Thursday, March 11th at 6:25PM EST (link)I believe they said his wife had a broken bone in her neck, but they didn’t make it sound serious (though that doesn’t seem to make sense).

Remember, these are the same jackasses that turned Wellstone’s funeral into a pep rally and trotted out kids to tell lies about Swimmer Kennedy. Why would Harry’s family’s situation be any different?
Cheers, derhoosier
Reid has the kind of insurance none of us will ever

But I wish no ill to his family, tho’ he might take every opportunity to impose on mine.

betaylor322 Friday, March 12th at 7:27AM EST (link)I, too, am very sorry for his wife and daughter, but I can’t forget that he’s working tirelessly against us getting the same care under his horrible bill! Congress exempted itself and it’s family members for the debacle they’d hang around our necks, just so they could “feel good”. I don’t suppose that had occurred to him – or if it has, he doesn’t care.
Report I just heard said

”Mrs. Reid has a broken nose, broken back and broken neck. Lana has a neck injury and facial lacerations. Both Mrs. Reid and Lana are conscious, can feel their extremities, and according to doctors their injuries are non-life threatening,” Manley said.
…
“Reid later returned to Capitol Hill, where he was meeting with White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel on efforts to pass health care legislation.”
Are you kidding me? He returned to the Capital to work on health care? Wow.

katnandu Thursday, March 11th at 6:43PM EST (link)I am so sorry to hear about Reid’s wife… reports say she has a broken back, broken neck, and a broken nose. Prayers for both Mrs. Reid and her daughter. It was a little alarming to hear he left the hospital to resume healthcare meetings, though. I’m not trying to be mean, but I find that odd with such serious injuries.
Wow, that's awful news...

If Reid went back to Capital Hill
VizBiz (Diary) Thursday, March 11th at 7:55PM EST (link).. then it’s probably a safe bet that his wife’s back is fractured. I don’t know this, but I can’t image a decent human being leaving his wife in serious condition for a meeting.
I’m guessing she’s going to be ok.
Praying for you Landra.

My sincere prayers to the Reid family.
Kenny Solomon (Diary) Thursday, March 11th at 8:21PM EST (link)You and a friend are driving along on a highway going to a concert and having a conversation when all of a sudden as if somebody flipped a switch – It’s apparently two days later, you’re in a hospital, somebody you don’t recognize tells you that you were in an accident and you’ll be absolutely fine…… and as you realize you’re re physically hurting big-time, that same person says “There’s some problems”.
Your friend of twenty five years that was drivng is gone. The driver and passenger of another car involved are gone too. Four other people from three additional cars were treated and released. By some God-loving miracle, you’re alive, but both your legs are broken in a few places – you also have a concussion and six broken ribs – you’re going to be fine and there won’t be all that much therapy needed. Somehow you were alive and they got you out from under the semi that veered across the highway and t-boned your buddies’ car and hit the others.
After hitting the cars, the truck slammed into a few trees to a complete stop……. Not a scratch on the driver. Not even a bruise. The truck driver fell asleep.
You’re not believing what you’re hearing, you can’t even cry…….. yet………… Then, over that hospital person’s shoulder, you see your five-month’s pregnant wife and your buddy’s wife.
That was a little over twenty years ago. The guy who woke up in the hospital is a friend of mine. I saw two pics of the scene – He looks at them every so often – if and when he tends to forget what really matters.
He and his buddy were meeting their wives at a concert – a kind of celebration night for both of them getting job promotions two weeks before.
His son was named after his buddy and graduates college this year.

Like I said……. Prayers to Senator Reid and his family.
Great news that his daughter was released.
A speedy recovery to Reid's family members

ashland_avenue (Diary) Thursday, March 11th at 10:19PM EST (link)May the One who was a source of blessing for our ancestors, bring blessings of healing upon Landra Reid and Lana Berringer, a healing of body and a healing of spirit. May those in whose care they are entrusted be gifted with wisdom and skill, and those who surround them be gifted with love and trust, openness and support in their care. And may they be healed along with all those who are in need. Blessed are You, Source of healing.

We should pray every day....
guyaverage (Diary) Friday, March 12th at 12:07AM EST (link)“It’s one thing to take shots as the man as a politician, but right now we should be praying for him and his family.”
We should always pray every day for all of our elected leaders, agree or disagree. We don’t have to show agreement in the political arena to pray for someone who is an elected official. God will sort out how to answer our prayers, and He knows what is in our best interest, and He also has something to say about praying for your enemies.
In a case like this, if you are praying for someone on a regular basis, compassion is easy to express. God can do a lot with that.
Just my two cents.

Prayer for Harry Reid?
yendor Friday, March 12th at 1:29AM EST (link)Well, someone needs to pray for them. I don’t think GOD will hear Harry’s.
Dear Lord, please let Pol Pot family be okay too, and let’s not forget Idi Amin
family in Uganda either. I sure it’s not their fault having such a monster in the family. I’m sorry I just can’t. You guys are better than I am so go ahead and pray I know I’m wrong but I don’t care the suffering he has caused is just too much for me. Sorry.

Might this be a sign or warning for Harry?
pathfinder81601 Friday, March 12th at 8:13AM EST (link)Maybe it’s a warning to back off the ramming of healthcare before you break the back and neck of this great country? Didn’t Harry send a letter to Mitch McConnell justifying the reconciliation process just before this happened? I pray for the full recovery of Harry’s loved ones as well as the health and safety of the country that we love.

edwlstr Saturday, March 13th at 12:15AM EST (link)even though for my family Harry plans poverty. Rapacious taxation due to the ever expanding size of government is the future he envisions. A good socialist would wish for no other outcome. Cradle to grave security systems are failing everywhere they exist, so why are we in such a hurry to just jump into this boiling cauldron? Give me your health care plan, Harry, and you can have the one you propose for me. Fair enough?
