:( :( :(

Bianca, the little girl to the left of Riley in the pink shirt, is Riley's preschool BFF. She is the sweetest little girl and it is truly a blessing to know her.... I love to listen to Riley recap all the things her and Bianca talked about and played at school for the day. I was heartbroken to learn Friday morning, that the night before Bianca was reaching to turn on the TV and it fell off of the dresser and smashed her to the ground. I believe it was a large TV (not a flat screen). Her mom heard a crash and ran in the room and found her covered in blood, nearly unrecognizable. The lifeless 4 year old was air lifted to Loma Linda were she remains in a coma. Bianca is hooked to breathing machines and it has been determined that if she survives she will not be brain dead; however, she will be deaf and possibly blind.

My heart aches for her family, I cant even fathom what they are going through. I'm going to get to work on sewing a special blanket for her and Kiddie Korner Preschool is going to start a donation jar on Monday. Other than that I feel so helpless... :(

OMGOSH! We will keep that little girl and her family in our prayers. It is crazy when those things happen... you hear about them all the time, but never really imagine it happening.

That is so awful. I will keep Bianca, her family, and Riley in my prayers.
