Injured daughter home for Christmas after Ontario crash
Harvey and Bernita Van Hierden celebrate a Christmas miracle as their 19 year old daughter Willena returns from hospital to the family Fort Macleod farm. After a severe Nov 18 crash she arrived home on Christmas Eve in a neck and foot brace, with weeks of recovery ahead but a week of family time before further hospital care. The family had feared she would not be well enough to come home, but doctors were surprised by her rapid progress. Willena’s homecoming offers a brief respite from hospital food and a chance to attend church during the holidays.
