Levi Wright, the young son of rodeo star Spencer Wright, has died.
The three-year-old died after suffering a trаumаtic brain injury from a near-drowning incident on May 21.
Levi was hospitalized at a Salt Lake City hospital after accidentally driving a toy tractor into a river near the family’s home on May 21. Local law enforcement found Levi unconscious about a mile downstream.
Although he was initially declared brain dеаd and not expected to survive, the boy began showing signs of improvement.
“LEVI WOKE UP! I am shook, we don’t know much but the doctor said it was okay for me to get excited about that and I AM! My baby is so tough!” his mother Kallie Wright wrote on Facebook.
Unfortunately, the following day the results of an MRI “wasn’t good.”
“We’re shattered but it is just images that suggest a certain quality of life. Our real teller of all will be what Levi does over the course of a few days,” Kallie shаrеd.
As Levi continued his fight in the hospital, his family and friends continued asking for prayers.
On June 2, Kallie shаrеd devastating news.
“After several sleepless nights, lots of research, multiple conversations with the world’s best neurologists & millions of prayers we are here in the face of our biggest fear,” she wrote. “Levi showed us just enough to buy us time for all of this. We prayed those things were him defying odds & proving to us that he wanted to stay here but we see now he wanted to give us time to find peace with letting him go.”
After countless tests, scans, and consultations, the Wright family took Levi off life support.
The following day, June 3, a family friend, Mindy Sue Clark, confirmed on Facebook that Levi had died.
“I cannot even begin to explain how hard the last two weeks have been. From the moment my phone rang the night of his accident, to last night receiving the message that he had to go. I don’t want to focus on the bad or sad, even though it feels likе someone ripped my heart out and squeezed it right in front of me. I want to focus on the many miracles we all got to bear witness to in those 12 days.”
“The most perfect three year old there ever was. So perfect we didn’t get to keep him. This baby boy moved mountains the last 12 days. He brought so many people together. In a world so dark, we got to see light at the hands of a child. He’s everything his mom and dad could’ve wanted him to be.”
Our prayers are with the Wright family during this extremely difficult time.
Stop Buying Tomatoes. Use These 4 Smart Methods To Grow An Endless Supply
Find Out How to Grow Tomatoes at Home the Best Ways
A fruit with many uses, tomatoes can be added to soups, pastas, salsas, and chiles, among other dishes. Growing your own tomatoes could save you money and improve the flavor if you eat a lot of them. Though establishing a new harvest with a tomato seedling is the most popular method, there are other options to think about. These four tactics will ensure that your favorite fruit is always available.
1. Bury Slices of tomato
A plentiful harvest can result from burying tomato slices, did you know that? The Wannabe Homesteader provides an easy-to-implement and affordable fix. An overripe tomato, some planting soil, and multiple containers are all you need. Potting soil should be added to a large container until it is nearly full. Then, cover the soil with a few thin tomato slices. Pick slices with many of seeds and bury them in enough soil so they don’t sprout. Give them a week or two to begin growing.
The tomato seeds take around a week to sprout. Up to sixty seedlings can be raised in a single container. Take cuttings from the top four or five strongest sprouts and plant them in different locations. Every few weeks, check on the young plants and pull off the weaker ones to make place for the stronger ones.
2. Bury Them in the Earth
Planting your tomatoes directly in the ground will greatly boost your harvest if you have a large yard with lots of sunlight. According to Bonnie Plants, this method also lessens the requirement for watering. But be aware that rabbits and deer can like nibbling on your garden, so you’ll need to take extra care.
3. Construct a Window Box for Them
In window boxes, tomatoes can be grown successfully even in situations when you don’t have much room for a garden. Use a window box large enough to accommodate at least 1.5 liters of soil, and use a string trellis that is drilled into the wall to support the plant. Use smaller tomato types to ensure the success of this technique.
4. Use a hanging basket to grow them.
Instead of using a pot on the porch, use a hanging basket if you’re concerned that hanging a heavy box from it would damage it. But remember, since the water will evaporate faster in this container than it would in a regular one, the plant will need more water. Use a cascade cherry tomato variety, like DIY Network recommends.
An easy and affordable method to get fresh, tasty fruit all year long is to grow tomatoes yourself. Take into account these tactics to guarantee an endless supply of your preferred fruit.
Is there someone you know who might like to give tomato growing a try?
