My 15-year-old was shot in the chest and nearly lost his life! He will have a long painful recovery and some things will not completely be normal again. My children and I have been living a very fearful, uncertain life the last few months as my son is slowly recovering and they have not arrested the ones responsible. On 9/22 my 15 year old was victim of a bullying situation gone way to far! He was surrounded by 3 kids put into a chock hold, busted in the head with a gun causing it to split open and as he looked up barely breathing from chocking he seen a green light on his chest and immediately was shot in the chest entering his right side shattering everything in its path going 2mm from his heart and exciting right above hospital armpit on the left side. He will live the rest of his life with only one working long and life long trauma, this pain I can never take away and it breaks my heart! His 17 year old sister was thankful with his this evening and put her finger into his bullet wound to stop the bleeding as he was coughing up blood before the ambulance arrived. My other children have been traumatized as well! I would be blessed for any thoughts you have, thank you 🙏🏽 🫂😭🙁 I’ve always had enough to keep food on the table, kids necessities and a home for them to sleep in. My life has been turned upside down and I must come up with the funds to move home to relieve the fear my son so he can at least sleep better and not be so feared as well as for all of our safety. I know that some injuries will not fully recover prayers please that he makes the fullest recovery possible! I am not able to leave the house much as I have to care for him. I have set this meal train up as I have been asked by many to do so! I would really appreciate any thoughts and maybe even resources for help over the next 6 to 8 months with necessities as well. The last few years have just been one thing after another I’ve had illness with two of my other children that came on all of the sudden that we are still working through, and to top it off I had a big vehicle repair bill I just had to pay so we had transportation! I am just so lost and upset I can’t take this pain away from my son. I have swallowed my pride and am seeking help from our community. I am trying my best to move forward from this horrific situation but seems so hard I’m so mad sad and all emotions! Why, why my son?!? Holidays are always very hard for us anyways and this will definitely made this holiday season very hard! Doctors are not sure yet when I’m able to go back to work. My whole life has been turned upside down and my sons life will forever be changed! Please pray for my family and one of the scariest times of my life! The suspects is still out there on the streets, I have heard very on the investigation except they are talking to people. Sad as it seems like this is happening more and more in our city 😞 and now it is affecting my family and forever affecting my 15 year old son! Thank You for your thoughts and prayers and any resources or thoughts you have for my family thank you so much and have a blessed day!
