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

How sad I will keep his family in my prayers.

 

[Felicia]

This is so terribly sad . I have a 6yo DD and with all the terrible things happening to our young children you just can't help but thank God everyday for what you do have.

This is so very sad.... My heart just aches for this family.

So sorry to read of this terrible news, BLONDIE .......

A LOVING GOD would never countenance this needless loss of innocent life..................

 

[Serena]

I'm sorry Blondie.

 

[newmousecateer]

Oh, how terribly sad. I am praying for the family.

 

[Mickey's sunshine]

How sad Blondie. My thoughts go out to the family.

 

[Ricola]

What a horrible accident! And what a shock to be there for the call.

I will hug my children the next time I see them.

May they find comfort that God can only bring. I will be praying for this family.
