Abigail Taylor was injured Friday in the wading pool at the Minneapolis Golf Club in St. Louis Park and taken to Children's Hospital for surgery.

"It's a horrible, life-altering injury," said Robert Bennett, the attorney for Abigail's parents, Scott and Kathryn Taylor.

Bennett said doctors had to perform surgery to remove the part of Abigail's intestine that remained following the accident. He said it is likely that she will have to be fed intravenously for the rest of her life.

Man I heard this story on the news this morning and my heart went out to this lil girl! It's bad enough that many kids get in the pool and drown, now we have to worry about them being to close to the drain! This is just crazy! I WILL NOT be going to the pool this weekend as I had planned b/c I know there will be kids there and my nerves will be on edge seeing them play in the pool and go under water. I'll be thinkin the worse.....
