The cries of a 4-month-old baby reassured panicked parents after a deadly tornado ripped through a mobile home community in Tennessee last weekend. Sidney Moore and his fiancée Aramis Youngblood face every parent's worst nightmare when a storm hits their home, but thanks to quick thinking and some unexpected luck, an amazing survival story emerges. Ta.
As the eerie roar of an approaching tornado cuts through the air, Aramis cradles baby Lord in the front bedroom while Sidney rushes to secure her eldest son, Princeton. In an instant, their world turned upside down. The roof was ripped open, and Aramis and Lord were lifted into the sky by a gust of wind.
“The first thing we did was the bassinet,” Sydney recalls, the raw emotion still evident in her voice. Those few moments of agony seemed to last forever as the storm unleashed its fury.
When the skies finally cleared, a frantic search for Lord began. The shattered remains of the house offered no answers, but just as hope began to emerge, Aramis saw a vision that defied reality.
The owner was lying snugly against a tree branch about 8 meters from the wreckage. A bassinet carried by the whims of the wind had thrown him into nature's cradle in the midst of devastation.
“It felt like it was placed in a tree, like a little cradle for a baby,” Sidney said, her voice shaking with fear and disbelief. “It was like a little hole at the base of the tree.”
Sidney and Princeton escaped with only minor scrapes and bruises, but Aramis suffered a severe dislocated collarbone. However, Baby Lord seemed to have the title of “Toughest Little Survivor”. He suffered a minor cut to his face, requiring medical attention and a concussion, but thankfully made a full recovery.
