One year old boy fighting for life after pool accident

My very dear friends, China & Alex, faced every parent’s worst nightmare yesterday morning (5/3) when they found their 1 year old son after he had fallen into their backyard pool. His mom immediately administered CPR before he was taken to the ER in Evansville and eventually life flighted to Louisville to see a team of neurologists.

Sweet Ayko (their son) is currently fighting for his life and the last thing they need to be worried about is finances. China is a small business owner in Evansville and Alex is a teacher for the EVSC. They also have two other elementary aged children. They are truly the sweetest people and the absolute best parents. China told me “I would go into debt for the rest of my life if it meant saving my babies.” Please consider donating to help alleviate costs as they will be acquiring tons of medical bills. The funds will also go towards hotel stays, travel, and food while they are in Louisville.

If you cannot donate, please share & keep praying for China, Alex, and sweet Ayko.

As of today (5/4), his vitals are improving, but he is still sedated. They are actively monitoring his lungs and brain activity, but will undoubtedly have a long road of recovery ahead of them. I will update this as I receive them.

Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of all of their family & friends’ hearts!
