Rodeo star Spencer Wright and his wife Kallie are mourning the loss of their three-year-old son, Levi, after a tragic accident near their Utah home.
Levi drove a toy tractor into a river and was carried a mile downstream before police found him unconscious. He was rushed to a Salt Lake City hospital with a severe brain injury.
At first, doctors declared him brain dead, but Kallie shared hopeful signs of progress. “LEVI AWARENESS!” she wrote on Facebook, calling her son “really tough.” However, an MRI later showed little chance of recovery. “It’s just pictures, but we are broken,” she admitted.
After days of prayer and sleepless nights, the family made the agonizing decision to remove Levi from life support. On June 2, Kallie revealed he had given them just enough time to say goodbye.
Family friend Mindy Sue Clark confirmed his passing, calling Levi “the most amazing three-year-old I’ve ever met.” She said the two weeks were “so hard” but also filled with miracles, adding that Levi “introduced light into a very dark planet.”
The Wright family continues to receive prayers and messages of support as they grieve and remember the joy Levi brought.
