Lets prayer for him!

His name is Allen and he is 10

So sad:( My kids & I were detoured through there right after it happened. Our hearts are with him & his family.

Correction I was so upset to hear that it was someone that I know, Let's pray for him!!!!

why was he allowed to ride his bike in the street?

Joan, where is he supposed to ride his bike?

So sad - prayers to Allen and Family !!!

G-d Bless,,,Prayers being sent immediately!

He is OK... I saw someone post on FB. Broken ribs and bruised, staying at CHOP.

Our warmest love and Prayers to Allen and his family, love Lindsey Morrow and family

soooooooooooooooooooooooooo sad allen was a friend of mine

Lets not worry about where he should be riding his bike at. He is my sons friend, and this has impacted us all. Lets just pray he can make a full recovery. And pray for the family as well.

he is 10 years old and he was my bestfriend

I hope the little guy makes a full recovery. I was detoured off of Sproul because of this incident. Of course kids don't belong in the street but I remember venturing off my block on my bike when I wasn't allowed to do so.

Praying for this child and his family <3 Also hoping for a full recovery and strength that is needed.

maybe if allen wasnt riding his bike in the street thenn he would be fine everytime i drive on sproul near the wawa there are kids crossing the street when people are driving and im sick of it yea its said but thats why kids shouldnt be riding bikes or crossing where there is no light

sad*

if cops see kids walking across an intersection or riding there bike when they know its dangerous then they should get a ticket or put another light in people are going to go 40 thats the speed limit nobodys watching out for kids being in the street

The girls and I are praying for you and your family.

Sproul Rd is such a busy rd too many accidents they should reduce the speed limit in certain areas. My thoughts and prayers are w/Allen and his family

The accident happened and is over with. Now is the time for prayers and support for Allen and his family. Those who choose to criticize the child for riding his bike and getting hit are simply insensitive individuals.

Prayers for this little boy and his family. He is still alive - if he WAS your friend he still IS. His family loves him very much and he just needs to get better.

Our prayers are with Allen and his family. He is a great kid. That street is entirely too dangerous 3rd person hit in a year. Speed limit is 40 mph which is too high for a residential area. There is no safe place to cross on that stretch of road. He was at the traffic light trying to cross - the person who hit him was going a high speed to cut his bike in half.

ALLEN, WE LOVE YOU AND ARE PRAYING FOR YOU. LIAM BEADLE AND HIS FAMILY

I think Julia needs to be ticketed for stupidity. I'll bet she is one of the a-holes that speeds through there.

It's actually illegal to ride your bike on the sidewalk. Sad that the kids have to ride their bikes in the street, as there are no bike paths of any kind appropriate for biking. There have been a lot of pedestrian and bike incidents in Marple and Newtown. Maybe a sign that we should be a little more pedestrian/bike friendly. Stop blaming the parents. I hope and pray that he will be okay.

I was talking to his Uncle today, he broke his arm and leg, and he fractured a lot of bones. He is slowly recovering right now, please pray for him tonight.

Alright concered citizen why don't you say your name maybe your to scared I go the speed limit I've never been pulled over ur just sad cus I'm right cya!

Julia, It's the DRIVER who should be aware of everything, not 10 year old kids. Kids are kids... Grown ups should know better & are suppose to drive defensively. (You also sound extremely intelligent....)
Hopefully Alan & his family will start the healing process & all will be alright.

Cindi miller take your drama somewhere else !

No Julia,, you take your nasty attitude elsewhere. This site is for a hurt child & his family. Not for stupid people or mean, sarcastic comments. You want to argue, go on Facebook, or a blog. Friend me, Glad to talk further about your attitude.

A few thoughts...Great news that this little boy is on the mend. Nothing worse than a hurt child. Maybe a few prayers for the man that hit him. It was an accident as reported. Unlike many others recently, he stopped. As far as the question of where children should ride there bikes, I think the first answer is NO WHERE NEAR Sproul Road!. There are plenty of streets on wither side of 320 for a 10 year old to safely ride. And, if for some reason a 10 year old needs to cross Sproul, there are lights at Cedar Grove Road and Paxon Hollow Road. A lesson to all of us parents about safety (Helmet!).

I think Julia's mommy blocked her from using Facebook, so now she comes to Patch.

JDBroomall - How do you know he was even trying to cross the street?? If you ever walked on that sidewalk the bushes are all overgrown and stab you in the face and you have to veer into the street.

I saw him last night at chop he is ok he will live thankfully, i whispered his name and he moved his head a-little and mumbled something pray 4 allen we all chanted pray 4 allen @ school on monday and some of my friends cried

It's time for Thanksgiving & the holidays. Let's just be thankful the child is doing better. Hopefully the holidays will get better for the enitre family, his relatives & friends.

I'm appalled at some of the comments being made on this blog. An extremely close friend of the family and one who has visited Allen everyday I can assure you that Allen will recover with time. In an attempt to protect him and his family's privacy (which everyone here should be doing) Amanda is the only one who is relatively close to his injuries. He does have a broken wrist and broken leg. He does have serious injuries however he does not have a broken back or broken ribs. He was not run over by a car as stated in some of the news reports. Shame on the media for not reporting accurately!
I'm also not certain why the speculation that he was permitted to ride along or cross 320. He wasn't. He is anxious to see his friends. When he is able to see them, I'm certain that information will be available to you. For now, he is being surrounded with love by his family and close friends of the family. If you would like to help the family or send good wishes, I'm certain that any of the schools will make sure that they are forwarded to them. Please keep Allen and his family in your prayers as well as the individual who hit him. Thoughts are with you as well.

I saw the child lying in the street last Sunday, shortly after the accident. The first think I did was pray for the child and his family. I then prayed for the driver. This will stay with them the rest of their life. That is how I was raised. I didn't judge or question. I let our Lord do his thing. I love all these perfect people and parents posting on what should have been done. Well, it didn't. So let's stop judging and pray for all those involved. And drivers, slow down, don't worry about getting through the yellow light and put your phone in the back seat.

Any updates on this little boy?

He is doing very good. Still in the hospital but not in ICU. He is talking and started eating. He has a long road ahead of him , but considering everything he is a lucky little boy. God was listening to everyone's prayers.

Im Allen dreyer the kid who got hit I'm ok
