Say A Prayer For Imma
As Imma van der Walt was undergoing brain surgery at Duke University Medical Center in a nine plus hour procedure meant to arrest an enlarged brain tumor, her Dad, well-known and respected transportation executive Lionel van der Walt and Mom, the always gracious and lovely Ilonka were standing by as the procedure continued all day Monday February 21
I spoke to Lionel, who said:
“Never been this scared of anything in our lives before, but we know the surgery must be done.
“Feeling rather "small" and helpless today.
"Wish there was something we could do to help her, but it's out of our hands.
“The worst feeling ever!”
Here were people that are operating flat out to summon up the courage that is the resistance to master fear during the most challenging moments of their lives together.
Asked what we in air cargo can do at that time, Lionel said simply:
“Thanks to everyone that might say a prayer, for Imma."
So we asked our readers of Flying Typers worldwide to join together and share a prayer for this young lady in her moment of maximum peril.
Well you did, and the amazing team at Duke did, and somebody up there likes Imma, so our news here from the recovery ward today is excellent.
For all we can tell there was some pretty powerful praying going on all over the world.
So here take a moment in everything else going on in our world today to tell a feel good story about something we all did together.
