Rescue: Oxygen Therapy After Well Incident
Jessica, a 21 pound toddler, spent 90 minutes in a hyperbaric chamber to speed healing after a fall into an abandoned dry well. Doctors report improved coloring, ongoing IV fluids, and planned plastic surgery to minimize scarring. Disneyland sent a Winnie the Pooh bear to cheer her in the hospital, as her mother stays by her side. The well was 90 to 120 feet deep, created by an old drill, with rock likely causing the uneven fall.
