A co-worker of my DH--his 6 year old son...

[Blondie]

Wandered off yesterday evening.

They yelled and search to no avail.

A search team was gathered and he was found face down in a small local pond. :( :( :(

While at work last night, I heard the trauma call announced.

For those not working in the medical field, when the resque squad is enroute to the hospital with a bad accident victim, severe head trauma, etc. a team is ready and waiting when they arrive.

The team usually consists of EKG, X-ray, Lab, Anesthesia, and of course several MDs.

Resucitation/CPR is often in progress as they are arriving.

This "Code Yellow" (trauma call) was him and he was basically DOA.:( :( :(

I can't even imagine what that family is going through right now.

Parents, pull your children a little closer today and tell them you love them.

[browneyes]

Oh, Kathy! That's so sad.:( I can imagine the horror his parents are going through.:(

If I worked in a hospital and I heard code yellows or code reds or code blues, I'd worry myself sick wondering if it was someone I knew.:(

I'll pray for his family. {{hugs}}

[dizneenut]

How sad! :( :( :(
I'll keep his family in my prayers.

[Blondie]

I wish they wouldn't overhead page Code Yellows because every time they do I pray it's not a member of my family being brought in.

But after awhile...you don't even bother to stop and listen to the announcements anymore.

[helenabear]

That is so sad :( I will keep his family in my prayers

[mickey65]

Terribly sad and tragic, Blondie.

Being in pediatrics, I unfortunately know that these accidents occur in the blink of an eye, and EVEN ONE is way too many. :( :( :(

When I read things like this it gives me the absolute chills as my DD & her DH have a large in-ground pool and I worry constantly about my 3 yr. old granddaughter..
