Feeling an unbelievable, unimaginable loss right now. At 11:04 pm last night my beautiful baby girl Kristina was struck by a 19 year old drunk driver while she road her bike in the bike lane home from study hall at CSUChico. She was less than one block from home. The driver just left her in the road to die and went on to crash into 2 more cars (no others injured) then stumbled into his apartment and passed out drunk. Kristina Chesterman suffered major head trauma and is not expected to survive. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
Why do bad things happen to good people? Even the best people?
How much can one family endure?
Last night, Kristina Chesterman was struck by a drunk driver after, I am told, an evening class in Chico. She has been hurt so badly that her chances of survival are not... they're just not good.
Kristina's mother, Sandra, and her father Dave, are likely in Chico at this moment holding vigil and hoping for a miracle.
If you've been paying attention, you'll know that Kristina's brother suffered a brutal attack in Chico earlier this year while he was visiting Kristina.
Sandra and her family are... well, they're the best people. I count Sandra amongst my friends and I'm very proud to call her that. I've met Kristina only a few times, but I remember her as a vivacious, beautiful young woman with a caring soul who supports her mother well in Sandra's efforts to serve the poor and the homeless.
Your prayers are requested for the miracle that is so desperately needed. I don't know the details, but Kristina's injuries are said to be terribly severe and very life threatening.
Thank you all...
