For the past 3 years I have been walking home its al been safe and no one ever got hurt, untill today....
My sister (Shes 12 and in 5th grade) was walking hom with her boyfriend (same age as kate) like any other day and the light was green but no cars were comming so as kate waited for the light to turn red her boyfrined darted acoross the road for no cars were comming, it that short of time someone turned out of a parking lot a couple yards away and turned and hit the little boy, My little sister saw the accident and heard the band of the TRUCK hit the little boy flinging him and then stoped a couple feet away from where his body layed. He was life flighted to a hospital because he was bleeding and complaning about his back hurting. My sister has calmed down after being REALLLY upset and crying none stop for an hour shes not home right now shes with my dad and i want to know. Is he going to be okay? Hes little ., Whats the chance of his surviving? IT SCARES ME SOO MUCH BECAUSE IF SHE WOULD OF FOLLOWED HIM SHE WOULD BE IN MY SHOES,
also my best friend and sister always say that i am a "mother hen" and make fun of me because if a car isnt slowing down fast enough evne during a red light or if i even think a car is going to be too close i will hold them bakc with my arms ... and then today.. I am sick to my stomich!


PLEASE ANWER!!!
THANKS SOO MUCH

It depends on his injuries. You have to find out what's wrong with his back. Is it broken? Or is it just bruised? How and where is he bleeding? Was anything broken? We can't really say much because we don't know how (and how bad) he's injured.

Was he run over? I think that he would have a better chance of surviving if he wasn't. What about his head? Did his head get hit at all? If his head was hurt bad enough, then that could cause problems.

How fast was the truck going? The slower it was going, the better. If it was going fast, I would be more worried.

If there's no internal bleeding, he has no damage to internal organs (like the heart, brain, etc), and if his neck isn't broken, I think that he'll survive.

However, that's just my opinion, and shouldn't be believed over that facts.

Also... stay a "mother hen!" It will be better in the long run (it already is better)!

I hope I helped, and if you need any more help, feel free to leave a question in my inbox!
