Georgia Southern Kappa Deltas
 
Hey everybody,

I was just informed that there has been a tragedy in the Kappa Delta family. Sometime this afternoon (Feb 10) 3 KD's were driving back to Statesboro and were in a car accident. Jessica Fulmer and Melissa Eustice have passed and Jamie Carter is in critical condition in Savannah. So far, Jamie's condition has improved, her breathing and blood pressure has stabilized and she has started to resist doctors, which is what they wanted to make sure she could respond. Jamie has broken both legs, her pelvic bones, and elbows. The doctors are trying to stop the internal bleeding and the neurosurgeon will be in tomorrow morning to evaluate the bleeding in her brain.

Please keep these ladies, their friends, and families in your prayers.

Kappa Delta's Address at Georgia Southern is

Statesboro, GA 30460

Oh how awful! I'll keep them and their loved ones in my prayers.

Leslie Anne 02-11-2008 05:11 AM

This is so sad. My thoughts are with my KD sisters at Georgia Southern and their families. I pray that Jamie Carter survives.

Wow, this made me sad. Poor girls.

BBelleADPi 02-11-2008 12:19 PM

I am praying for all of those who are touched by this sad event, and for the Greek community at my alma mater.

SthrnZeta 02-11-2008 12:24 PM

I heard about this last night - apparently they are from the town I live in so it was all over our local news. Very sad day indeed, I wondered if they were Greek and if I'd read about it on GC and I'm sad to see they were NPC cousins :( Get well soon Jamie!!!

I found this when I Googled her looking for updates:

Its a very sad time to hear what has happened to these wonderful ladies. I personally knew jamie as she lived a few houses down from me while growing up. She has always been one of the sweetest and most gentle girls I have ever known. I can only pray that she is as strong as I know she is and will pull through this.

ktbug10474 02-11-2008 02:59 PM

i have an update on jamie.

they turned her again and she's still responding to the doctors. YAY!!!! that's all for right now.

PhiLove83 02-11-2008 04:51 PM

Well wishes and prayers from Jacksonville.

another update on jamie
 
Just found out that Jamie's right ventricals are not pumping blood to her heart and the doctor said there is nothing he can do right now since her body was traumatized so bad. The doctor also said her heart is bruised really bad and thinks she might have hit a tree when she was thrown from the car. However, this is a bright side he said that she can hear people speaking.

Please please please keep Jamie in your prayers.


Scandia 02-11-2008 07:40 PM

Sending prayers here as well.

Seatbelts do save lives. I have been hit by a semi and by a bronco. But both times all people in the car were wearing seatbelts- and walked away unscathed.

honeychile 02-11-2008 11:49 PM

My sincere sympathy and prayers to all those touched by this tragedy.

May people start to realize that everyone needs to wear their seatbelt, not just the other people.

Hello all Greeks! That is the facebook group for the ladies of KD at GSU. They are updating pretty reguarly about Jamie's condition.

Just as a reminder... we are all brothers and sisters... no matter what letters we wear!

Keeping them in my thoughts.

pirate00 02-12-2008 12:26 AM

my prayers go out the chapter and the families.

TriDPrincess 02-12-2008 02:07 AM

My prayers are being sent to the families of all the girls. I'll also be praying for a miracle with regards to Jaime.

SthrnZeta 02-12-2008 11:11 AM

Magan, thanks for posting that - I joined the FB group and I'm glad they're updating so often!

SthrnZeta 02-12-2008 02:40 PM

Another Car Involved...?
 
Two bits that shocked me from the following piece: there was another car involved in the accident and they are searching for the driver. AND one of the victim's fathers died in a car accident when she was only 3 and she will be laid to rest next to him. :(

ktbug10474 02-12-2008 06:33 PM

hey yall. in case you haven't been able to read the facebook groups updates here's the update on jamie

her oxygen is doing 100%!!!!!!! Her heart rate is down to 142 they started her on a dialysis machine to help drain some of the fluids... tomorrow she will be moved to the O.R. and have a catscan to see about any of her brain trauma...

barbino 02-12-2008 06:35 PM

There was alot of trepidation in my heart when I read about these three young KD's. I felt really bad for everyone involved, because I know firsthand what a chapter goes through when it loses one of its members.

One summer I called one of my sorority sisters to see how she was doing and she informed me that one of my sisters had been in a car accident and had been killed. I was in another state and no one called me. Another girl from another chapter on campus had been seriously injured, but she was expected back for recruitment that year, with newly-cut bangs to cover the scars from stitches on her forehead.

I know how I felt back then and I still think of this girl occasionally. I also know how it affected the whole chapter-everyone goes into a mourning phase. I watched it really affect her closest friends in the house. Her parents sent a grandfather clock to the chapter with a memorial plaque on it. My prayers are with Jamie and with the chapter. Some bleak days are ahead as this chapter copes with its loss. However, these two girls will always remain within the hearts of the sisters that loved them. There is no icon for tears.

It's an event that's within the group on facebook... tomorrow wear green and white to show support for the Ga. Southern KD's

AOII Angel 02-12-2008 10:57 PM

Ktbug...I wanted to PM you but you have it deactivated. As a physician who is constantly reminded of HIPAA and people's right to privacy, I urge you to be a little more general about Jamie's condition on a public forum. I know you mean well, but since Jamie isn't able to consent to having her private medical information released, it is probably in her best interest to say the types of things they generally release to the media such as "She is in stable condition." That's just my opinion, and I am in no way condeming your vigilence. I hope the treatment they give her will help her improve. This is truly a tragedy.

nittanyalum 02-12-2008 11:05 PM

^^^I'll co-sign on this, I think you're putting out way too much personal medical information on this girl, the facebook group is available for anyone who wants to join, but I'd prefer to just read that the doctors think she's improving, her friends and family are with her, she's moved from intensive to another care floor or whatever general things are going on, etc... Please feel free to spare us the more specific (and personal) medical info. Please.

whiterose97 02-13-2008 03:19 AM

im praying for the Kappa Delta ladies at GSU who lost their lives and i am praying for the young lady who is fighting for her life. Im a new sister in Kappa Delta at UTC and my heart goes out to all my sisters!!!

twinkle555 02-13-2008 04:06 AM

so sad
 
This is so tragic. :( Its hard to see such beautiful ladies my own age pass like this. I have seen first hand how hard it is for a chapter to lose one of its own (for those who dont know/remember, we had a DG pass away this past Sept. here). Im keeping all the KDs in my thoughts and wishing Jamie all the best.

Alpha love

KD Girl 02-13-2008 01:17 PM

My thoughts and prayers are with you Jamie!

ktbug10474 02-13-2008 04:32 PM

hey everybody,

i know this a few hours late ... but Jamie went into surgery at 1. Please please please please keep her in your prayers.

Jamie passed away tonight, Keep her in your prayers please, all of us at ga southern are deeply saddened by the lose of these 3 beautiful girls.

Another thing to the zeta's- Melissa's sister was the ZTA vice president here and could use all the love and support she can get from her zeta sisters.

NutBrnHair 02-13-2008 11:15 PM

God bless all of the families and friends.

KSUViolet06 02-13-2008 11:17 PM

This is awful. My prayers are with their sisters and families.

SthrnZeta 02-14-2008 01:41 AM

I've been following this story on FB all week and I was really pulling for Jamie. I am deeply saddened that she lost the fight :(

I'm so sorry to hear about this. I was hoping that Jamie would pull through.

God wanted those 3 women to be with Him. Hopefully that'll bring some comfort to their loved ones.

Prayers to the families, KDs, and community at GSU.

FloridaTish 02-14-2008 12:43 PM

As a former Georgia Southern student, my thoughts and prayers go out to the family and sorority sisters of these 3 young women.

May God's grace be with you all...

SthrnZeta 02-14-2008 02:40 PM

I just drove by the funeral home where they are having the service for Jessica Fulmer and I've never seen it so packed - there are cars lined up on the lawn out front! You can tell she was very loved and will be missed by many.
