Wow
Ya never realize just how dangerous our own backyards are.
and just how some innocent playing can turn almost deadly....
This past Sunday, my 2 boys & 2 of their friends, were playing all day together outside enjoying the warm weather...in & out of each others yards, doing things boys do. Having a good ole time.
Well, an almost fatal accident happened, sending them to the hospital in ambulances,when for some reason or another, the 4 of them picked up a piece of aluminum gutter that was in the neighbors yard and lifted it into the air.
When they lost control of the wobbly piece of 20-30' gutter it hit the wires that run across the back yards.... causing an electrical shock to go through their bodies and literally leave 2nd & 3rd degree electrical burns on 2 of the boys.
One being my oldest son, who is 10, and his best friend, who is also 10 (SatrShines' son).
The other 2 boys (one being my son, who is 7) were not actually touching the gutter upon contact, but still had to be treated at the emergency room , they had no burns, just the force field shock. Still a very scary thing to have happen to anyone, let alone small children.
Anyway, both my son & his best friend were treated at the emergency room & then transferred by ambulance to a Burn Center to be treated. They were both released tonight & are doing okay. (well besides the burns & infections that is)
All 4 kids are gonna be okay....
This was probably the most scariest situation I have ever dealt with concerning my children.
I thank God and the angels, that were surely close by, that these kids are alive right now!
Never underestimate anything in life....life can be dangerous!
peace baby
