shell rock - A baby was mortally wounded when she got a baseball on her skull.

McKenna was at the breast with her mother Kassie who was on the sidelines of a baseball game. The woman saw the rushing ball late, American media reports.

'Because she was just feeding, she looked down,' says a relative at the Waterloo Cedar Falls Courier. The ball that was hit over the net, she has never seen. She only realized what was happening when her baby started screaming heartbreakingly. 'McKenna did not start crying right away, but very soon a lump formed on her head and she began to scream. '

Her father, Lee Hovenga from Shell Rock, played in the baseball game. He immediately came running when he saw what was happening.

The hospital showed that McKenna's skull was broken. Because of the blow she has already received two strokes.

Father Lee posted on his Facebook page the latest photos of the baby that were made for the accident. 'I want this image, this photo gives me hope'. There are also videos of the child in the hospital.

Slowly the hope grows that McKenna will survive. Because the medical bills keep on coming, so far $ 50,000, the couple has started a crowdfunding campaign. Up to now, almost 30,000 dollars has been collected.
