Sophie Delezio accident 5 year old Sophie Delezio, who was badly burnt in a childcare centre accident in 2003, has been hit by a car in Sydney's north. Sophie's father, Ron, said the car struck her when it failed to stop at a pedestrian crossing. She was in a pram being pushed by her father when the car struck. She has been airlifted to Sydney Children's Hospital at Randwick, and full condition has not been confirmed, but it is believed she has suffered a broken leg. Sophie was badly burnt in December 2003 when a car burst into flames after slamming into the Roundhouse Childcare Centre at Fairlight, in Sydney's northern beaches. She lost both her feet, some fingers and her right ear in the accident that occurred when she was just two. :( |

Just read about it myself Bridie - poor little thing. Can't begin to imagine what her family has been through over the last couple of years.

Sophie Bounces Back (from the Courier Mail) SOPHIE Delezio has mustered her trademark courage for her latest battle in life, with her condition stabilising more quickly than doctors expected. Fears doctors had that her heart may have been injured when she was hit by a car at a pedestrian crossing last Friday have been allayed, with the latest tests showing her heart function is "excellent". Almost all of the ribs on the right side of her body were broken, and in the 12 hours after the accident she lost twice her body's blood volume. The doctor in charge of her care at Sydney Children's Hospital, Dr John Award, said yesterday the bleeding had stopped. He said while her condition was still critical and she remained on life support, she was stable. Sophie's father Ron asked for people to give blood as a gift for sick children. "She's doing very well . . . Sophie is going to go through pain just with the broken bones in her body. But she's alive and she'll get through this I'm sure." More than 8000 messages of support had last night been posted on a website called Wishes for Sophie. |

:no: Good news she is on the mend, apparently they've charged an 81 year old driver...! <_< |
