Toddler with Burns From a Campfire Brought From Hoopa to St. Joe’s

scanner-150x150The report of a toddler with burns to chest and neck in the Hoopa area had emergency personnel scrambling to respond around 2 p.m. today. An ambulance transported the one-and-a-half-year-old girl to St. Joseph Hospital in Eureka. As of 3:30 p.m., the family hasn’t received a report on how she is doing.

According to a family member, the child fell into a campfire and was pulled out quickly. Our hearts are with the family.

I’m praying not only for this precious child but also for the family who must feel like they are responsible for this accident.
May there not only be healing but also strength for the family to endure this terrible incident.

There is no cost to the child or parents. We will pay their way down there from our transportation fund

I love my daughter very much! And it wasn’t a camp fire we were just cooking hamburgers on a small coal bed, we are on our way to Sacramento to UC Davis burn center to treat the 1st and 2nd degree burns that are on her left hand, elbow and knee. We live in Orleans, thank you all for keeping us in your prayers and thoughts!

Last year my little dude was burned. He was flown to Redding then flown to Shriner’s in Sac. Such a wonderful hospital. I’m so very thankful it’s there. So sorry this happened Alex. I had a lot of fun making friends with your little gal Sat.

This happened to my son when he was 3. I felt so guilty and horrible! But accidents do happen. I hope she heals fully and completely!
