Kallie Wright, mother of three-year-old Levi Wright, shared a devastating update on her son, who was declared brain dead after falling into a river while playing on his toy tractor in Beaver County, Utah.
Levi, the son of Rodeo champion Spencer Wright, fell into the river and was submerged by strong currents. Despite life-saving efforts, doctors informed his parents that he was brain dead. In a social media post, Kallie described the experience as a "roller coaster" and detailed the uncertainty of her son's condition.
Days after the tragic accident, Kallie revealed a surprising turn of events: Levi woke up despite his grim prognosis. She expressed her cautious excitement, acknowledging the challenges ahead. In her latest update, she praised the medical team for their dedication and the gift of time they provided.
Kallie emphasized the importance of prayers and the family's commitment to making informed decisions about Levi's care. She mentioned exploring various therapies and consulting with professionals to support Levi's recovery.
The accident occurred when Levi briefly slipped away from his mother and drove his toy tractor into the river. Rescue teams, including the Beaver County Sheriff's Office and Utah Highway Patrol, responded quickly, with Kallie herself jumping into the river to save her son. Despite restoring his heartbeat, Levi showed no signs of brain activity.
Earlier, family spokesperson Mindy Sue Clark had shared that Levi's heart was beating on its own, but he was not showing signs of recovery. The family had prepared for the possibility of saying goodbye, but the latest developments have given them hope.
Kallie concluded her message by requesting continued prayers and support as they navigate this difficult journey, emphasizing that every decision will be made with Levi's best interests at heart.
