Stay positive...he is young and strong and that will work in his favor!!
I know, everyone is still in shock. First he wanted to play football, but his mom said, no way.. too dangerous. Then he wanted to try boxing or mma, and she said, no way.. too dangerous. So he finally asked to play soccer, and she told him sure, that wasn't as dangerous. Now, the poor lady is blaming herself because she let him play. It was truly a freak accident. He was the goalie and the player on the opposing team was coming at him, he ducked, and got kicked in the back of the neck, and it cut the circulation off to his brain. He is very physically fit and strong for his age, so we are praying that really, really works in his favor and helps his body to heal itself quickly. He is one of those kids that never says anything bad about anyone, and is good friends with all the kids in the youth group. Not to mention he can cross reference scripture and knows the Bible better than most adults. Thank you again for the prayers and good wishes, yall.. It's so nice to know that there are prayers being lifted up for him not only in our church, city, state, but also all over the country.
