Dear family and friends,

On Saturday, November 19, Florencia received a blow to the head from a falling branch while she was walking in the woods. The tree branch struck her on the head and back. She was first taken care of by paramedics at the scene, and then sent to the Suburban hospital. Due to the severity of the injuries, doctors decided that evening to transfer her to the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center, a free-standing trauma hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, part of the University of Maryland Medical Center. She was sent into surgery to drain blood out from her brain. The surgery went well. We are now waiting for her to wake up, and continue her recovery.

We thank  you for all the messages we have received from our family, friends, classmates, co-workers, neighbors and acquaintances. To support Florencia in her recovery, and keep everyone up-to-date, we will update this page with news of her recovery.

We invite family and friends to post here your good wishes, and messages of love and encouragement for Florencia. This journal will serve as a testimony of how much everybody cares for and loves Florencia.

We have faith that God will help her get through this.

Thank you,

Rodolfo and Valeria

Querida familia y amigos:

El sábado 19 de noviembre Florencia sufrió un golpe en la cabeza mientras paseaba en el bosque. La rama de un árbol le golpeó la cabeza y espalda. La atendieron los paramédicos en el lugar del hecho y luego la derivaron al hospital Suburban. Esa misma noche, debido a la seriedad de las lesiones, sus médicos decidieron trasladarla al R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center, un hospital traumatológico independiente en Baltimore, Maryland, que es parte del Centro Médico de la Universidad de Maryland. Tuvo una cirugía para drenar sangre de su cerebro por la noche. La cirugía salió bien y todavía estamos esperando que se despierte y continúe su recuperación.

Queremos  agradecer todos los mensajes que estamos recibiendo de nuestra familia, amigos, compañeros de clase y de trabajo, vecinos y conocidos.

Para apoyar a Florencia en su proceso de recuperación y mantener a todos informados, vamos a actualizar esta página con las noticias de su evolución.

Los invitamos a que acompañen a Florencia dejando sus mensajes y palabras de ánimo para que se recupere lo más pronto posible y para que sirva de testimonio de cuanto es querida.

Tenemos mucha fe que Dios va a sacarla adelante.

Gracias a todos,

Rodolfo y Valeria
