Can I get some thoughts and prayers for a friend? Their little boy (4yo) fell in their pool yesterday and had to be revived by CPR. He is in critical condition, on a ventilator and they are worried about his BP and swelling in his brain.
His dad said that things aren't looking good. I don't know exactly what that means, but it makes my heart hurt. We've known this little family since 2006. The wife helped my H pick out the first jewelry he ever bought me They are the absolute best, most supportive, sweetest people.
Any thoughts you can spare for this family are so appreciated.
Update: Sweet Brolin passed away today, I just found out. He had over 3,000 people praying for him. My heart hurts so badly tonight. The picture they posted of him was of him sleeping at a table and it just about broke me. He was M's age. Please watch your babies like hawks around pools (not that they didn't, this was a freak accident, this is just my natural gut inclination because I want to feel like I can prevent something like this). I'm kind of in shock. This is the kind of stuff that always happens to someone else and its hitting pretty close to home tonight.

Prayers sent. I'm so sorry this is happening. If it helps, I know a couple who had this happen to them in January, and their one year old survived and has exceeded expectations during recovery.
