I just saw a post from Kayla on the Community Board that her 5 year old nephew, Gavin, was run over by a lawn mower. He was airlifted to the hospital. She hasn't heard anything yet. If you could spare a prayer for him, I know if would help!
Thanks Dyan for posting this here
he can use all the prayers he can get
I don't know the extent of the injuries yet
I DO know he has a broken leg
and that his brother who is 14 was operating the mower so he could use some PD too
Oh Kayla.. that is just awful... on his birthday too... oh the poor little thing...
Thanks for the update.. prayers will still be said for the family...
oooh sad...;( on his birthday to boot....really sad......and the brother, he must be so beside himself. sending more pixie dust,prayers and hugs to you and yours....
Something very similar happened to my cousin and his son. The son was 5, getting ready to start school and they were hauling hay. Son was sitting on the front of the wagon and his dad was driving. They were going down a hill when the safety chain on the wagon let go and the wagon came unhitched. The fully loaded wagon crashed into the back of the tractor, breaking both of the 5 year old's legs. It was horrible, and no one's fault, just a freak thing, but my cousin felt awful.
The good news...now 15 years later, my second cousin is a hard-working, fun-loving, engineering major at UT, who still spends his whole summers working on the farm.
