ilized her for her transport to Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

"We thank God for the Air Angles paramedic flight crew who watched over Lauren while she was being airlifted from Kishwaukee to Chicago, and to Lauren's doctors and nurses here at Northwestern Memorial where Lauren has received and will continue to receive outstanding care.

"We thank God for our immediate family and friends for showing us so much love and for helping us get through this horrible tragedy.

"To everyone who has been praying for Lauren's recovery around the world, please continue to reach out to her; please continue to show her your love, and please continue to keep Lauren and our family in your prayers, as Lauren begins to heal. Thank you."

Lauren is very fortunate however, as it did not penetrate her heart, but rather ruptured a muscle, which subsequently injured the valve and caused it to leak. At this time, Lauren is recovering well. We are preparing for an additional surgery in the weeks ahead. We expect her to make a full recovery."
