July 03, 2014

The day after a horrifying sinkhole accident in which her son was severely injured brought some intense emotions, an Elgin mom said. Benjamin Hernandez, 15, took a few steps from his bed to a chair Wednesday morning in the pediatric intensive care unit of Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, San Juanita Pineda said. "He's not ready to be sitting up, so he's back to the stretch (position) until he gets a result on the spinal (test) again," she said.
