Rodeo star's wife sends desperate message to fans as son clings to life after tractor trailer accident

The stricken wife of rodeo star Spencer Wright has sent a desperate message to fans after their son Levi almost drowned in a toy tractor accident. 

Levi, 3, has spent over a week clinging to life after medics feared he was left brain dead when he drove his toy tractor into a fast-moving river in Utah. 

In an update on Thursday, his mother Kallie took to Facebook to dispel theories from fans about her son's recovery, as she said: 'This has consumed us, please for one second don't think we haven't fully done our homework, it has been nonstop!' 

The family previously said they were taking the recovery 'one step at a time', with Levi undergoing a number of MRI's and scans since the tragic accident. 

Kallie Wright has taken to Facebook 'to get things off my chest', and told fans 'please for one second don't think we haven't fully done our homework' over his recovery 

Levi snuck away from his family in the toy tractor (pictured), and his mother reportedly dove into the river to save him after he disappeared under the currents 

The tragic accident unfolded on May 21 when Kallie was outside watching Levi playing on his tractor trailer. She momentarily went back into her home to check on her nine-month-old.

When she returned moments later, Levi was nowhere to be found, and she frantically dove into the raging Beaver County river to search for her son in the torrent.

Kallie called first responders and they found Levi in the creek around a mile downstream. He was airlifted to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City.

The Wright couple braced themselves for the worst, saying they planned to 'stop care and hold him close until his last breath on earth' after doctors said he was unlikely to survive.

But two days later a miracle occurred as Levi awoke from his coma Thursday night. 

In her Facebook update, Kallie said she felt the need to tell fans about Levi's recovery, mainly to 'get things off my chest.' 

Spencer Wright's son, Levi, has been in a critical condition for more than a week after driving his tractor into Beaver River close to their home in the south-west Utah town of Milford

Kallie shared an update on her son's recovery and told fans to stop chiming in with 'nonstop' advice on his recovery 

'I'm going to address one thing that has been brought up continually and that is the Hyberbaric Chamber therapy for brain injuries,' she wrote. 

'1. Hyberbaric chamber therapy is not an option if a child is on a vent like Levi. He has to be medically stable enough first to even have that option. He is not medically stable enough to leave this place.

'2. If he can't breathe on his own (manage his airways) a trach would be required which is a device that goes through a man made hole in the throat with a tube leading to the lungs. Now think about that! 

'On top of that he will require an NG tube (a feeding tube through his nose) and long term potentially a gtube which requires surgery and another man-made hole through his side.

'3. Spencer and I have spent the last week, exploring these and other therapies and what we are finding & feeling is for our situation those therapies can't bring Levi to where he would be happy should they even become an option. 

'HIS happiness comes before ours, period.'

The mother concluded that while many people have chimed in with their thoughts on what they should do, ' please for one second don't think we haven't fully done our homework, it has been nonstop!'

In another update the day prior, she said doctors attempted to 'wean sedation but (Levi) did not handle it well.'  

The family previously said they were fearing the worst as Levi was left almost brain dead by the tragic accident

Rodeo star Spencer Wright's wife has said they are feeling hopeful about their three-year-old son's recovery from a brain injury after he plunged into a fast-moving river 

Photos on social media show Kallie cradling her son as they both lay in his hospital bed with his father standing nearby.

Kallie has shared a number of updates on her son's recovery, and on Sunday she wrote: 'This is an experience, I pray deep in my soul you never have to know the way I am beginning to.

'This is a roller coaster that you go on unwillingly & blindfolded, you do not know what's coming next. You just get to wait & ride it out. We are taking it day by day.'

She shared the type of brain injury her son may sustain, and the unknowns that are ahead. 

'The term 'Brain Injury' is very broad, there are ranges and different severities. No two brain injuries are alike, even if the accident is similar. No two brains recover or don't recover the same.

'There is a lot Medical Professionals don't know, but what they do tell you is based off legitimate medical literature and history.'

Spencer has also spoken out to encourage fans to donate money for a boy of the same age who is being treated for sepsis caused by meningitis in the room next door to Levi.

Three-year-old Taysen Baum has suffered blood clots, strokes and a brain injury triggered by the infection. His parents, like Levi's, are praying for a miracle their boy will survive.
