Seth’s Story

Site created on April 9, 2022

Friday morning April 8, 2022 in San Diego, a California Highway Patrolman called and informed us our second son Seth, had a serious motorcycle accident. Seth is a U.S. Navy sailor stationed in San Diego. We called Scripps Mercy hospital in San Diego prior to boarding our flight to check Seth's status.  "Be prepared for what your son looks like " is not a good thing to think about all day long, especially when you are surrounded by strangers.  It was a long emotionally draining trip. We arrived in San Diego Saturday evening. The Navy has taken good care of us. Seth has numerous critical injuries including a traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and serious lacerations and broken bones.  While we trust the doctors and other medical professionals, we also believe God is in the miracle business. Thanks for taking time to check Seth’s updates and for your prayer and support.  Friends have set up a GoFundMe account https://gofund.me/18dc22d7 if you feel led to help offset families expenses. These funds will go directly to the family. Thanks again for your prayers.

Journal entry by Laurie McGraw —

I posted an update to my Facebook page not realizing that a lot of you are not following me.  
 I wanted to let everyone know that Seth is doing really well mentally and spiritually! I firmly believe that all of your prayers were heard and answered, and for that I am so grateful to God and you all!!!
Physically Seth is doing okay. He is in a lot of pain mostly in the afternoon and at night. He is working out everyday though!
 Now for the good news! As of August 30th he will no longer be in the Navy, and on the 31st will be coming home!!!!
 I  can't wait for him to go to The 34 Project and continue his journey! 
Please continue to pray for him to heal, but mostly for him to be able to bear the pain that comes with it.
