'A miracle': 2-year-old recovering after falling from 15th floor apartment balcony
SILVER SPRING, Md. - It's the story making headlines around the world — a two-year-old survived a 15-story fall in Montgomery County. It happened at a high-rise apartment community in Silver Spring. FOX 5 went to The Enclave apartment complex in Silver Spring and visited a family on the 15th floor — the same floor the child fell from to get a perspective of the fall the 2-year-old had taken. "Just look over there. I don't know if he landed on the bushes. I don't know. He landed on the bushes. That's a miracle. A miracle man," said Mohamed Koroma, who allowed FOX 5 into his home. "It's really sad." These are the bushes that apparently broke the little boy's fall. they're not much. The authorities say the boy was on the 15th floor. It's a 20-story building and around 2 p.m. on Thursday, the boy fell from the balcony. We're told he suffered a broken leg and multiple internal injuries but nothing life-threatening. Adults were at home at the time but police say they're still investigating how the boy got over the protective glass that surrounds the balconies there. "They must have some chairs here. The kid might've climbed over because there's no way. There must be some equipment right on the floor that the kid used to flip over," Koroma said. Another neighbor who lives on the fifth floor of the building, says the toddler should never have been outside unsupervised. "I feel like the children shouldn't be on the balcony, especially unattended because why are they outside? I have four children and they are not allowed on the balcony and we live on the fifth floor. So the 15th floor? That's crazy to me," mom Ty Powers said. "It's definitely a tragedy but people have got to watch their children. The baby should not have been outside on the balcony." We're all wondering how it is possible to survive a fall of that distance. FOX 5 reached out to Children's National Hospital to ask that of a physician, who doesn't know this case but does know the laws of physics. "I want to stress first that this is really miraculous," said Dr. Katie Donnelly, a pediatric emergency medicine doctor with Children's National. "Falls from this height are usually pretty devas Montgomery County police say there are no charges being filed against the parents or guardians of the boy who fell at this time.

Article content I didn't want to do much more than lounge in a deck chair when I planned my cruise on Discovery Princess. Yes there were excursions I had to do – ride a trolly in San Francisco, visit the San Diego Zoo, and see the La Bufadora in Ensenada, Mexico, a blowhole that shoots water metres into the air several times a minute – but those outings were planned by or for my daughter. I just wanted to get away from the office, eat good food and relax. Article content Article content Article content Discovery Princess proved to be worthy of the stewardship. Full disclosure: I sailed on the Sun Princess in 2023 and knew Princess Cruises was synonymous for — luxury, indulgence, pampering, and entertainment that didn't require I get out of a cushioned seat. Yes I was going to pack on a few pounds and be catered to while sailing along the California coast down to Mexico, at times just watching the horizon dip. Article content The Lotus Spa is located on deck 5, just past customer service. I was welcomed by the sound of babbling water, offered a cucumber-infused water and given a tour by a friendly hostess. Article content Article content There are treatment rooms for: massages, facials, pedicures, manicures, wraps, exfoliating scrubs and more treatments than I needed. I was more enticed by the large hydrotherapy pool at the heart of the spa. This is The Enclave – which anyone can use even if you don't get a spa treatment. A pass is required to use The Enclave or you can get a package that allows you access every day of your cruise. Article content Article content I booked a deep-tissue massage for the next day.

The Hammam for a steam bath, the Laconium for its dry heat and finally the Roman-inspired Caladium. By the time I dipped into the hydrotherapy pool I was stress-free and swooning. From there I gathered myself long enough to take the short steps to a heated stone lounger. Article content I vacillated in the space between basking and dozing content to soak in the heat. It was only FOMO that got me off the lounger to check on happens elsewhere onboard.
