A tragic incident occurred in Kansas as Quinlynn Irene Jones, a 7-year-old second-grader, was hit by a falling branch from an elm tree while playing in the park with her family. The incident occurred on a Saturday when the family went to the park, and strong winds broke off a branch from a tall tree, causing it to fall on the little girl, fracturing her skull in two places.
Quinlynn is currently struggling for her life at Children’s Mercy Hospital in Overland Park, where she has been admitted with life-threatening injuries. Her family has created a crowd-funding page to help cover her medical expenses and her mother’s time off work, as she will be looking after her daughter during her recovery. The page also provides updates on Quinlynn’s condition and urges people to support her family in any possible way.
Ruth Ann Park, the administrator of the family’s Facebook group, shared that Quinlynn’s mother is not blaming anyone for the incident, and there is no anger or resentment. The family has accepted the situation and is hoping for the best possible outcome.
It is a tragic incident that serves as a reminder of the unpredictability of life and the need to cherish every moment we have with our loved ones. Our thoughts and prayers are with Quinlynn and her family during this difficult time.
In a recent update on Quinlynn’s condition, Parks shared that there is a possibility that she may need an operation for the depression fracture on her skull. However, her loved ones are hopeful that with enough rest, the inflammation will go down, and the operation will not be necessary. The last few days have been a harrowing experience for Quinlynn’s family and friends, who are praying for her recovery.
Parks continued by stating that despite the seriousness of her injuries, Quinlynn has shown remarkable courage and resilience. In just four days, she has gone through more than most people do in a lifetime, and her bravery has been an inspiration to all who know her. The Facebook page set up for her recovery urges everyone to hold onto the hope that she may not require surgery, as this would be a significant milestone in her recovery.
Although the medical professionals are optimistic about Quinlynn’s chances of recovery, they are still unsure of the extent of brain injury that may have occurred due to the accident. The road to recovery may be long and difficult, but with the love and support of her family and friends, Quinlynn is sure to pull through.
The unfortunate event serves as a poignant reminder of how delicate life is, and it emphasizes the significance of valuing every moment. Our hearts and minds are with Quinlynn and her loved ones during this trying time, and we fervently wish for her swift and complete recovery.
