I recieved this email from a girl that I used to work with from that bank that was from our Chillicothe branch, it amazed me how many caring people we have in the world that would take the time to give either their prayers or some kind of help to this family. The lady that I work with is actually neighbors with this people and she said that this was just devastating! Please everyone keep this family in their prayers!

To all who will receive this,> On Tuesday afternoon a three year old boy, named Colten,> was severely injured in a lawn mowing accident in Polo, Missouri. He lost > one of his legs in the accident, and the other had to be amputated. > Extensive injuries to his back side has left him without a rectum. He lies > in a drug induced coma at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. Keep > this child and his family in your prayers over the next several months. He > is at a very high risk for developing infection because of how the injury > occurred. As for the second part of this request I was not sure of how to > even begin to word it. This family has no health insurance coverage. The > need for help will reach far beyond his medical bills. This is a young > family who's father is self employed. A account has been set up in his name > (Colten Newman), at Bank Northwest in Polo, 305 Main St. Polo, Missouri > 64671 Telephone #660-354-2111.> In closing, we all receive and send emails to each other, often with > a long pre-forwarding list of people we don't know. Words of encouragement > that might have been the right message for someone. But, sometimes it takes > more than just hitting the forward button. If what I could imagine for this > family, it would be, that> everyone that receives this email, would place one dollar in an envelope and > mail it to the address above. This is not a scam, that is why I included the > address and phone number of the bank.> > Trust the person that has sent this email to you, and act on faith. May God > bless all who reads this.>
