日前在美國愛荷華州有一對新手爸媽霍凡加 (Hovenga) ，爸爸李 (Lee Hovenga) 因為要參加一場壘球比賽，因此帶著妻子和7周大的女兒麥肯娜 (McKenna) 到球場，一起坐在觀眾席先看別人比賽並等候上場，只是正當妻子蓋著毛毯在哺乳的時候，李發現有一顆壘球往他們方向飛過來，然後就這樣砸中妻子和麥肯娜，當場麥肯娜痛到哇哇大哭，霍凡加夫妻也趕緊將女兒送往醫院，沒想到傷勢卻非常嚴重。
他們緊急將麥肯娜送醫後，檢查後發現麥肯娜的顱骨骨折，腦部甚至還有2處有出血，寶寶也多次出現癲癇的狀況，雖然進行手術之後寶寶的狀態有比較穩定，但是還是很不樂觀，麥肯娜小小的身體全被醫療管線給包圍，仍然在住院觀察治療中。
這場意外所造成的憾事消息傳出後，各地都有人愛心捐款給霍凡加夫妻，希望可以用這些善款讓麥肯娜可以獲得妥善治療，好好地康復，這也讓霍凡加夫妻非常感激；而他們也在臉書上幫麥肯娜開了一個集氣的粉絲專業，也會PO出寶寶目前的病況讓關心的人知道，最新一則貼文指出雖然他們現在只能被動等待寶寶好轉，但至少收到的都是好消息，他們現在也和大家一樣一直在幫麥肯娜祈禱的，也謝謝大家陪他們度過這場艱難的戰鬥。
這是霍凡加夫妻分享女兒現在可以自己穩定呼吸的樣子：
Afternoon Update: At this time McKenna is critical, but stable. The MRI showed that the two blood clots have not gotten any larger. She is currently on anti-seizure meds preventing the multitude of seizures we were seeing this morning. Your prayers are being answered! We have not received any significant bad news since 7:30 am. She is breathing on her own, is able to suck her pacifier and cries when agitated. These are all great signs! Right now it is still day by day. The neurosurgeon just left and at this time they do not feel surgery is necessary, however they are monitoring her for any significant changes. Currently the main issue is keeping her blood pressure stabilized, as the seizure medication causes it to drop. Right now she is resting as well as can be expected. Please continue to pray for complete healing for McKenna. Your kind words and prayers mean more than you know. ❤ UPDATE: This video took a while to post. McKenna just had 3 consecutive seizures with the longest lasting 9 min 30 seconds at 5:45 CST. Switched her meds to phenobarbital.
