Stephanie Nielson day....

On August 16th Stephanie Nielson was in a plane crash with her husband, Christian
Nielson, and his flight instructor, Doug Kinnear, near St. Johns, Arizona. Doug Kinnear passed away soon after arriving at the Maricopa County Hospital. Christian & Stephanie remain in critical condition at Maricopa Burn Center. Christian has sustained burns on over 30% of his body. His wife Stephanie's body was burned over 80%. They have four kids- who are staying with family in Utah. The medical costs for their recovery will likely reach millions in the upcoming months of pain and healing. The events are tragic,yes. But, the outpouring of love from complete strangers is turning tragedy into a story of love and sympathy. The example of selflessness from the Nielson family and fellow bloggers is nothing short of amazing. Many bloggers out there are holding "silent auctions" on their blogs.
Today has been named Stepanie Nielson day.

on her sisters blog you will find a link to list of the silent auctions starting today to help Nie and Christian. There are over 165 auctions from bloggers going on today! I have worried many times that Ryan would not come home to me when hewas flying the small airplanes... I have been so blessed and want to help these people and their families as much as I can!
Thanks everyone!
