3 year old local boy Harris Jones needs prayers!!
On Sunday, January 18, 2009, 3-year-old Harris Jones of Wilton, NH was involved in a serious snowmobile accident. His legs were run over by a snowmobile and he is in danger of losing one of them. He was rushed to Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth in Hanover, NH, where he is still currently.
His parents Kelly and Keith Jones, both work in Milford. Kelly works as a paraprofessional at the high school and Keith runs his own paint business and is the head football coach for Milford High School.
Jaiden’s Angel will be assisting the family with a financial donation. We are requesting that you keep this family in your thoughts and prayers at this time.
If you wish to leave any messages for the Jones’, or be put into contact with the family, please post here and w will forward this information to a family liason.
HERE IS A MESSAGE FROM THE MHS FOOTBALL / CHEER BOOSTER BOARD:
Today with very heavy hearts, we have tragic information to share with all of you. On Sunday 1/18, our football coach Keith Jones's 3 year old son Harris, experienced a tragic accident as a result of a snowmobile malfunction. Harris suffered very serious injuries, such that it nearly took Harris from his loving parents and from all of us.
Harris has extensive damage to both legs, and had his first of many surgeries to reconstruct his right leg Sunday evening. He is currently in intensive care and critical condition at Dartmouth Hitchcock hospital in Hanover, NH. It is expected that he will require many more surgeries over the upcoming weeks. This is information as of last night and may change from day to day.
Both Keith and Kelly are at his side and it is expected that Harris will be spending the next several weeks in the hospital in Hanover. You can imagine as parents how devastating a situation this is for Keith, Kelly and their families.
The Booster Board has agreed that as the Football Boosters community of families, we would begin the process of helping Keith and Kelly during this most difficult time. As many of you hear this for the first time, I am sure you will have the same response and share in the shock of this terrible news. Many of you will have questions as to what we can do to assist, so here is what we are doing immediately.
We are creating a fund for the Jones Family. Anyone who wishes to make a contribution or send a card may so at the following.
