Shark attack survivor Bethany Hamilton is making an urgent plea on behalf of her family.
The pro surfer shared Oct. 12 that her nephew Andrew, 3, had been hospitalized after drowning and needed help from a medical expert.
“HELP,” the 34-year-old wrote on Instagram, alongside a photo of the boy helping to carry a surf board. “My precious nephew was medivaced to kapiolani in Oahu this morning after drowning last night. He still has a heartbeat and has fight in him.”
Bethany, who has two older brothers, continued, “We are wrecked. But I know how proper medical support can make or break someone’s chance of survival and in this case we’re asking for help from anyone who has information of what we can do to give my nephew the best chance.”
Bethany, a mother of four who documented her harrowing tale of surviving a 2003 shark attack that cost her her left arm in a 2004 memoir and the 2011 film Soul Surfer, shared her post on her eldest brother Noah Hamilton‘s Instagram.
