Tragic Accident Leads to Organ Donation by Family of 8-Year-Old Boy
An 8-year-old boy named Eli Hill died after a basketball goal fell on him while he was playing. The incident caused blunt force trauma to his chest, and he later died at the University of Kentucky Medical Center. Eli's family donated his organs, and his mother described him as having "a heart of gold." The Corbin community is mourning the loss of the second-grader, who was a natural athlete and a leader at his school.
