UPDATE: Infant badly injured at unlicensed West Fargo day care dies - Grand Forks Herald
“He has touched so many people, and brought so many people together, that in such a short time has done amazing deeds,” his father Casey Skodje wrote on Owen’s CaringBridge site Thursday night. Casey Skodje and his wife, Kristen Hunstad, of Fargo, wrote on his CaringBridge site earlier this week that they planned to donate his organs. Officers responded about 1:20 p. m. Monday to a report of a baby not breathing at 1746 Huntington Court, West Fargo Police Chief Michael Reitan said. Police helped the day care provider give CPR before Owen was taken by ambulance to Essentia Health and later flown to Minneapolis for treatment. The Fargo and West Fargo police departments and Cass County Social Services are investigating what happened at the day care on Monday. According to the CaringBridge site, Owen went to day care healthy Monday morning, but they are not clear on what happened later, calling it a “tragic accident. ” Casey Skodje wrote in a CaringBridge post on Tuesday that a CT scan of Owen showed bleeding on the brain and a lack of brain activity. Darcy Anderson, who had her day care license revoked in 2011, owns the home where the day care is operated. Reitan said the day care was in operation at the time of the incident and other children were present. Source: www.grandforksherald.com
