10-year-old Tennessee boy pulled into a storm drain by flood waters has sadly passed away after a long and hard fight.
Asher Sullivan was playing in flood waters on May 8th in Christiana, TN., with friends while his parents helped neighbors clean up after a devastating storm struck the area the night before. While playing, Asher suddenly disappeared and was pulled by the waters into a storm drain. He emerged from the drain into a drainage ditch a short time later. However substantial damage was already done. Lifesaving measures were given on scene and the young boy's heartbeat was restored.
Asher's parents had been meeting with neurologists, trying to decide how to move forward when Asher's vitals crashed. Doctors performed a battery of tests before confirming Asher had passed away.
Ashers father, Dr. Sullivan, described his passing as Asher doing what he has always done, putting others first. In passing away he took all the hard decisions his parents were having to face away for them.
Asher is remaining on life support however so that he can be an organ donor. Hopefully in doing so other families will not have to go through the suffering the Sullivan family has undergone.
There are plans for an honor walk to celebrate Asher in the near future although no details have been released at this point.
Are thoughts are with the family, friends and community of Asher Sullivan.
