A Georgetown boy ended up in the ICU during his birthday trip to NYC. His family is now thanking the community for the support.
10-year-old Riker Stippick was thrilled to be experiencing his first slice of NYC pizza and seeing the Broadway musical, "Hamilton.""Bless his sweet little heart," said David Stippick, Riker’s dad. "He wanted to go to the Weehawken dueling ground where Aaron Burr and Hamilton had their duel."The Stippick family was in New York City celebrating Riker turning double digits.
They had to drill a hole into his skull to drain blood and fluid and remove clotting. Now, they're focused on getting his electrolytes back up."We don't know the genuine hope of if and when he does come out of this, what kind of therapies or treatments are going to be needed down the line," said Stippick.David, a hospice chaplain, and his wife, who is the assistant principal at Herrington Elementary in Round Rock, were met immediately with support back home.
