My beautiful 2-year-old grandson was struck by a car. He was placed on life support, but he died the next day. He was our only grandchild; the light of our lives. My daughter and son-in-law were devistated to say the least...all of us were. Most of all they were devestated by uncaring people who did not know how the accident happened and judged my kids for not being good parents. Until you know all the details of a situation, don't judge someone. The man who hit our baby did not do it on purpose. We pray for him that time will soften the memory of the accident. God help Christopher's parents and all those involved. Our hearts go out to you.

Serena, I am slightly offended by your comment. First, why would someone in ministry or close to ministry tell someone to"shut up"? Maybe, just maybe, the opinionof somepeope is the driver should be charged. But I want to ask you, from your post, you seem to be implying that only people in ministry are innocent of all wrong doing. I see your reason for being upset but your comments were simply uncalled for. Opinions vary from person to person and you can't change that. Now for my response to Deb Farris and the feelings a mom has. Even the unattentive mom wants no harm to come to her child. Its natural. It is sickening to me when I hear these stories. I also find it hard to block it from my mind. But I can only hope that what is in store for my 4 babies and your 2 and all of the others is to always stay safe. I haven't heard about Christopher's condition but I hope it was a good outcome.

I can't imagine going through that! I have 4 kids and would be devastated if anything happened to them. My heart goes out to the family.

I mistyped, I meant to say attending to him rather than me.

Amber, are you are police officer? Do you know the details of the accident? Did you know the Christopher's parents have met the driver? If you don't know these things, then SHUT UP! The TRAINED police officer said that there was no way the driver could have avoided the child, NO WAY! Do you drive? I sure hope you don't get charged if something is not your fault. I know the man that hit Christopher. He has children of his own and works with children in a ministry. He is VERY upset and prays for this child daily. It was an accident. He saw the children and was watching them carefully, but they were on both sides of the road. Did you know that the man jumped out of the truck after he hit him, went to him, called 911 and prayed over the child while attending to me? Did you know that Amber? This was an accident! As for your comment about all Wichita drivers not knowing how to drive, well, some don't, but that is not the case with this man.

It is very sad and I hope that Chris makes it threw this. The driver of the car should have been charged for one, because we all know HOW wichita drivers DONT drive. 40 mph up streets with no disregard for others tryiing to cross or standing on the side waiting to cross the road. Would it had made a difference if he had been with his parent or someone "supervising" him? Or would it just make it easyer to have someone to blame? I feel so bad for the parents of Christopher and his friends that were with him that day.

I agree, I have a 5 year old and 7 year old and would never let them walk anywhere by themselves. They don't have the common sense older kids and adults do to stay as safe as they need to. I also want to say that I feel really bad for the person driving the truck. I don't know if I could live with myself if I did that.

it is a sad story, but honestly why are these young children being allowed to walk unsupervised? 6 yrs old is very young to be walking such a busy road by himself. parents also need to start taking some responsibilities for their actions. there is no excuse for this child being by himself. i pray that he makes it through this, and i pray that his parents will understand that children need to be supervised. too many things can happen to them at such a young age.
