This happened to include swimming in a lake near their campground. It’s a favorite spot where people come to take in the views, enjoy the lake, and cliff dive.

Sarah Faulkner was swimming in this lake when a teen girl landed on her from thirty feet above, forcing Sarah to the bottom of the lake. The 7-year-old was terrified when she realized her arms weren’t responding so she could swim to the surface.”She said when the girl landed on her back that her whole body froze, and she hit her head on the bottom of the creek and, evidently, drove her all the way to the bottom,” said Sarah’s father, Tre.She was rushed to the hospital, where she received nineteen staples in her head. And that’s when doctors told her family that Sarah would never walk again. Her injuries from the swimming accident paralyzed Sarah Faulkner from the chest down.
