Girl, 7, Shot 6 Times While Protecting Mother
I hope the little girl makes full recovery both physical and emotional, I hope the man in question is sent to jail for a very long time AND I hope the mother of this child makes some sort of treatment and stop dating abusers and putting her kids in danger.

| A Detroit girl who jumped in front of a hail of bullets to protect her mother from an enraged gunman Saturday night is being hailed as an "angel from heaven." Alexis Goggins, 7, was hit protecting her mother Selietha Parker, 30, after Parker's ex-boyfriend Calvin Tillie, 29, forced the pair and family friend Aisha Ford to drive to Six Mile Road under threat of death, the Detroit News reported.

Mother Protecting Times Shot Girl
Wow, this article stirs a lot of different emotions. First and foremost, what a selfless little girl. I hope she recovers fully as you mentioned LDS. That is such a sad thing to happen to any child but a seven year old--I have a dtr. that age and I can't even think emotionally how messed up that would be for her.
Also, I agree with you LDS, when you mention the mothers choice in company. I know sometimes we can't see inside everyone but I am sure there was some kind of hostile or anger problems in that six months that she could of picked up on.
I am truly amazed at the bravery that little girl had in her and I do hope she lives and can move forward.

This was so brave of the little girl, and she obviously loves her Mother very much. I hope that the girl can recover well from this, but I fear that there are at least going to be on-going long term nightmares from this incident-nobody knows how trauma affects in the long run, but I hope that the Mother has learnt a valuable lesson about the company she keeps and how it can affect others!
