Easton “Tank” Oliverson, the 12-year-old Little League player who was hospitalized in critical condition after falling from a bunk bed last weekend, is no longer in intensive care but still facing challenges, his family said Friday on Instagram.
“The swelling in his face has gone up, and the doctors have told his parents that it will get worse,” an Instagram account set up to share updates about his recovery said in a Friday afternoon post. “This has limited Easton’s ability to see, creating a unique challenge for him,” the post by @miraclesfortank added.
Easton is a member of the Snow Canyon Little League all-star baseball team — Utah’s first team to reach the Little League World Series, representing the Mountain Region.
