Hello everyone!

Good News! If everyone that hadn't heard about my Grandson and Daughter in law and her Best Friend and her 3 year old son who was involved in a horrible accident Sept. 29th. They were walking and pulling a wagon with my 2 year old grandson and her 3 year old son in a wagon on the side of a residential area. A truck that did'nt see them ran right over them. They all 4 were airlifted to Champaign Illinois Carle Hospital. The 3 year old boy (Dallas) didn't make it. His mother ( Jessica) my Grandson (Tyson) and daughter in Law ( Chelsea) were all in acoma . Jessica came out 4 days later. she didn't even get to go to her little boys funeral..My daugter in law was in acoma until Yesterday.. She is aware of her surroundings etc but they are keeping her in assisted acoma for all her injuries. She has had 3 surgeries already. One for her femur.. two for her pelvis.. she has many more. She had a lacerated spleen and liver.. broken pelvis, femur.. ribs.. arm.. serious concussion with a brain bleed.. the tops of her feet and legs the skin was torn off from where the truck dragged her. Tyson my son had a sever concussion. 3 long gashes.. one on left eye lid.. one from ear to head.. and one in mouth.. Jessica .. serious facial injuries that will require plastic surgery and teeth were knocked out. THE GOOD NEWS NOW IS! CHelsea is awake.. asking questions when not sedated... since the surgery infection is high risk so they are keeping family from not visiting. She is still in ICU.. Jessica is home now too.. doing well.. My grandson is HOME too.. Praise the Lord.. I believe in Prayers and Miracles.. Please everone Keep those prayers coming.. Thanks for the prayers and support! MY YT Friends are Awesome!!!

I have been checking back several times during the day, hoping for updates......this is blessed news! I am absolutely thrilled with all the positive outcomes in this tragic event....I am heartbroken over the death of that precious little baby boy Dallas.....his poor momma and family....so terrible. It is wonderful news you are getting about Tyson and Chelsea....will continue to pray for their continued improvement!

Even though all the injuries are gruesome, it sounds like good progress has been made, though for little Tyson, Chelsea and Jessica and no apparent infections, brain/vascular clots. Bless Jessica's heart, you know she's devastated over losing her little son and her injuries, worried about Chelsea and Tyson and vice versa, if Chelsea and Tyson know about him yet. It's just so tragic and unfair for good, young people to be struck down like this with years of suffering and hard work to ever try to get back to anywhere near where they were just before that truck hit, that you just wonder about the state of mind of someone who gets behind the wheel and drives a huge vehicle right into 4 people!

I'm so grateful they were all taken to a facility which can give them the kind of care they need. I've been praying each of them heals as fast as possible and you son is bearing up and I'll keep praying. Thanks for the update and stay positive and keep your faith strong - they need it. We care about you, too, so know we want to know how you are holding up and are praying for you all.
