A six year-old hero

This broke my heart, especially because the boy will probably die, but it was also inspirational and very beautiful in its own way.

Six-year-old Donnie Hauser-Richerme knew he couldn't swim, but he also knew the little girl in the murky, debris-filled swimming pool was in trouble.

Donnie jumped in and helped save 5-year-old Karah Moran's life before becoming stuck in five feet of blackened rain water and muck at the bottom of the deep end.


What an amazing, wonderful little boy. A tragically short life, but what a great life to live in just six years. If there's a heaven, he has reserved parking next to the gate.

Amazing..

Almost brought a tear in my eye.. touching, theese things don't happen often.. one brave kid, hard to say anything else, nothing in words seems to even get close in resembling what he did.. this proves that we have much to learn even from the kids.. If only everyone would have such courage as this little fella..

omg:(

I just have one question

Is the kid still alive?
Since I didn't seem to read about his death... It said he was on life support, but did he die?
