[quote]On Wednesday evening, Pinellas County deputies say Jeremiah Nugent was mowing the lawn at their Palm Harbor home, when he accidentally backed over his 2-year-old daughter Ireland, who ran up behind the mower. Her legs were severed at the ankle, and her left hand was injured.
Nicole Nugent says two neighbors, one of whom is a nurse, helped stabilize her daughter until paramedics arrived.
Dr. Dennis Reid, pastor of the Trinity Presbyterian Church in Clearwater, gave an update on Ireland's condition Thursday afternoon before her mother spoke.
Dr. Reid says Ireland has undergone two surgeries, and will need several more. Her next surgery is scheduled for Saturday, when her wounds will be cleaned again. Dr. Reid says the final surgery is expected to take place on Monday, when Ireland's wounds will be closed.[/quote]

The parents and doctors say she'll make a quick recovery, thank God.
Oh jesus, I shivered when I read the title, glad she's gonna be okay.
Terrible.
Naming your daughter Ireland is also terrible.

She'll never be able to have potatoes.
That must be traumatizing needing to live with the fact that you severed your own daughters ankles with a lawnmower
Isn't it really only her feet that were severed if it's below the ankle and not her legs? Also, I am saddened by this but am happy at least that she was 2 so she probably won't remember any of the pain when shes older.

That's not a leg, that's a foot
Wow those jokes are horrible, you do realize a 2 year old was severely hurt?
I hope a mod comes in here and cuts your fun short.

Don't be such a party pooper.
EDIT
I mean, sure, is an horrible event, especially because the victim is a 2-yeard old kid. But some people just have a weird sense of humor. Nothing we can do about it.

What do they mean, severed?
Oh my..
YOU SEE WHAT YOU'VE DONE PETER JACKSON?!

Apparently they won't be able to reattach her limbs so she'd kind of be scarred for life, but at least she'll live.
Father of the year goes to this douchebag.
Made me shiver all over. Goddamn.

it was an accident moron
Since the legs were severed below the knee, I don't think it will be all that hard to give this girl some kick-ass prosthetics.

It is when it's a fucking stupid one that makes no sense.
Now we know why they call them the terrible twos. I notice the article didn't mention who is supposed to be taking care of the kid while dad is mowing.
at least we can take solace in the fact that utilizing prosthetic feet is far more manageable than prosthetic legs

Oh fuck, I remember that woodchipper tragedy.
One of the few things that make me cringe hard every time I hear about it. I can't imagine what that father went through after that...
Ow ow ow ow ow...
