An El Campo toddler suffered head and neck injuries in a tractor accident and faces potential brain surgery.
Ripp Ryan Macek enjoys playing outside with his toys and family — which unfortunately led to tragedy last weekend, roughly three miles east of Danevang. Ripp was partially run over and hit by the tractor tire. Ripp has been receiving care for his head and neck injuries from a neurological team and the family is receiving support from the Ronald McDonald House in Houston. The family has collected around $20,000 in donations so far for Ripp’s medical care. Anyone wanting to help can donate to the Ripp Ryan Macek Benefit Fund account at NewFirst bank or contribute to the family’s Go-Fund-Me page.
