Please pray

Please pray for my Aunt Iva who is in her 80s. She lives in Arkansas.
From what we were told, she was out taking a walk yesterday evening, and she was hit by a car. We have also been told that the driver didn't stop. Someone called 911 and she was taken to the hospital with a hurt hip, knee and head injury. She has a concusion and remembers nothing about the accident. She had surgery on her knee today and is in recovery right now. We were told that she would have to stay in the hospital until she can get around with a walker and then was told that she needs to go into a nursing home, something that will NOT sit well with her (can't say I blame her).... so please pray for her healing and that she accepts what the doctor tells her. There is family there in Arkansas who are with her now, and mom and I are planning on going over there in the next few days.

UPDATE:
(WE FOUND OUT LATER SOME MORE OF THE STORY, THE DRIVER DID STOP AND CALL 911)
She is doing better after her knee surgery but is frustrated that she can't get up and walk because of the pain.... my Aunt Iva, even at 85 is more active than most people and is always going out and helping out all the "old people"
