I Just Want to Be Saved!”: The Shocking Last Words of a 6-Year-Old After a Badminton Accident

A family from New Jersey is heartbroken after losing their 6-year-old daughter, Lucy Morgan, in a tragic accident while on vacation.

The accident happened when Lucy was watching her family play badminton. During the game, a racquet broke during a swing, and a piece of metal flew off and hit Lucy in the head, causing a serious brain injury.

Lucy’s father, Pastor Jesse Morgan, shared the sad details on his blog, New Creation Living. He described how June 1 started like any other day on their family vacation in Limerick, Maine. But then everything changed, and he now believes his little girl is with Jesus.

The family quickly understood how serious Lucy’s injury was. Jesse explained on his blog that after the metal hit Lucy, she became unresponsive but was still breathing. His wife, Bethany Morgan, went with Lucy in the ambulance to a nearby hospital. Later, Lucy was airlifted to Maine Medical Center in Portland because they knew her life was in serious danger.

“When Lucy arrived at the hospital, she went straight to the operating room. Doctors removed part of her skull to relieve pressure from her injury. She went into cardiac arrest but they brought her back and finished the surgery,” Jesse wrote on his blog. “In the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), we were told there was a very slim chance she would recover.”

Jesse Morgan shared that just a month before the accident, Lucy had expressed a desire to be with God. She told her parents she wanted to be saved and live with God. After a conversation with her mother, Lucy went to her room to pray.

“She prayed to God to forgive her and told Him that she believed in Jesus’ death and resurrection. What a gift,” he wrote.

Sadly, despite the medical efforts, Lucy did not recover from her injury. Jesse explained that the piece of metal had caused severe damage to her brain. Doctors informed the family that she likely would not survive.

“No blog post today. Lucy Lynn Morgan passed away this morning around 4 a.m. She now sees Jesus face to face. Thank you for all your love poured out to us,” Jesse posted on June 5, 2024, along with a picture from earlier goodbyes.

The day before her death, he wrote, “The lack of brain function over the past 48 hours shows that we are utterly devastated. If there is any good news, it’s that she hasn’t felt any pain during this time.”

“We will keep waiting on the Lord, getting second opinions, and looking for every possible option while crying out to God for a miracle,” he added. “However, as of now, our beloved daughter has been showing all the signs of brain death. There is a very good chance she will pass away and meet Jesus within 24 hours.”

In the wake of this tragedy, the family has received much love and support. Many people shared kind words about Lucy and her family on social media. Dan Cruver, a former professor of Jesse Morgan, spoke highly of him in a Facebook post.

“Jesse Morgan was a student of mine when I taught Bible and theology at Clarks Summit University 18 years ago. I remember many students, but some stand out because they frequently engaged with me after class and asked thoughtful questions. Jesse was one of those students,” he wrote.

To support the family, loved ones created a GoFundMe account, which has exceeded its original goal of $100,000 and is nearing a new goal of $130,000, with over $125,000 in donations so far.

Organizer Jill Anthony wrote, “This page is meant to provide the family with generous financial support – to help pay for meals while they are away from home, lodging for family, medical costs… whatever they need.”

Anthony also provided an update: “On June 5, Lucy went to be with the Lord. Please keep praying for the Morgans as they navigate the coming days, weeks, months, and years without their sweet Lucy.”

A Sick Dog Dumped In Freezing Weather Who Kept Crawling And Trying To Keep Warm

No pup should ever know how heartbreaking it feels to be betrayed by their owners and to be left at the mercy of the streets.

Unfortunately, it’s a sad reality for many dogs.

Pick was one of the canines who ended up on the streets, feeling rejected and unloved. Heartless people dumped him at a local market in the freezing weather.

Trembling with cold, he crawled and tried to find a warm shelter.

Every time he saw people walking past him, he looked at them with his sad eyes as if he was begging them to help him.

Sadly, the passers-by failed to find compassion in their hearts and come to his aid.

After realizing that the people ignored him because he was sick, the pup started losing hope.

Little did he know that his life would soon change in ways he couldn’t even imagine.

Helping The Little Pup

A kind woman who visited the local market noticed the abandoned pup.

Her heart sank when she saw the terrible state he was in. The dog’s eyes were filled with hopelessness and sorrow. He had no fur on his wrinkled skin.

The compassionate human lifted the little canine from the cold concrete and he hid in her shopping bag. He felt scared.

The woman took him home and gave him a bath, hoping that he would feel better.

She drove the pup to the vet for a thorough medical examination.

He was diagnosed with a severe skin disease, and he needed to be quarantined.

The dog’s legs were deformed. The vet reassured the rescuer that the pup would make a full recovery as soon as he got enough calcium.

The Dog Begins Fighting For His Recovery

The good woman brought the little canine home. She and her family showered him with a lot of love and positive affirmations.

She decided to name him Pick and give him a forever home.

The dog felt grateful to his new mom for giving him a second chance at life.

Pick felt determined to fully recover. His skin was itchy, but he never complained. His mom’s love gave him the strength to keep on fighting.

She often took him outside so that he could get natural calcium.

Pick made an effort to walk again. He often stumbled, but he refused to give up.

Little by little, he started feeling better.

Two weeks after his rescue, Pick regained his strength. He started running and smiling more.

He brought a lot of happiness to his mom. Every time she returned home from work, Pick welcomed her, wagging his tail.

His legs recovered completely.

Pick Turns Into A Healthy And Handsome Pup

A month and a half later, the dog’s fur grew back. Pick became a handsome pup. He felt confident and happy, and his eyes shone brighter than ever.

His mom took him swimming for the first time in his life. Pick enjoyed it, and he couldn’t stop smiling.

Pick lives the life of his dreams with his mom, who loves him infinitely.

He went from an unwanted and sick pup whom everyone ignored to a healthy and happy pup.

Many thanks to his incredible mom for showing compassion to Pick when nobody else wanted to help him and for giving him all her love.
