In a freak accident, a teenager jumped from a 30-foot rock onto the 7-year-old girl while she was swimming at a campground.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A Tennessee family is leaning on faith after a 7-year-old girl was paralyzed in a freak accident while swimming.
“She said when the girl landed on her back that her whole body froze, and she hit her head on the bottom of the creek and, evidently, drove her all the way to the bottom,” said Sarah’s father, Tre Faulkner. “I said, ‘Sir, man to man, just tell me the truth: will she ever walk again?’ He said, ‘No, I do not believe so … but there is something out there more powerful than me,’” Faulkner said.
“I believe God can and will heal my daughter. I need a miracle. My wife needs a miracle. My children need a miracle. You need a miracle. Our country needs a miracle to show that God is real and God is alive,” Faulkner said.
