OXFORD — A four-year-old girl who suffered a fractured skull after a television set fell on her head March 29, is on her way to recovery, her mom, Brittney Footman, reported Tuesday.

To raise money to help the family, Amanda’s Trademark Salon and Spa, on Main Street in Norway, is holding a fundraiser, “Pink Streaks for Kaydence.”

Now until April 26, the salon is weaving a pink hair extension in customers’ hair for $6. Half of the proceeds goes to the Footman family to help Kaydence through her recovery, according to salon owner, Amanda Miclon.

“I can’t believe the amount of support there is,” Miclon said Tuesday, at the salon. She said since the fundraiser began, the salon has done 230 streaks and raised a little more than $500.

The goal is to do a thousand pink streaks by Saturday. Miclon said walk-ins are welcome at the salon on Friday specifically for “Pink Streaks for Kaydence.”

“I love walking through the store and seeing all the streaks,” Miclon said. “It’s amazing how many people have joined us for this!”

According to Footman, Kaydence was in her room changing clothes when she climbed her dresser and the dresser and the television set on top of it fell on her.

“The TV fractured her skull in several places and caused swelling and bleeding on her brain,” Footman explained.

According to Footman, Kaydence suffered severe head trauma and had to have an external ventricular drain put in her skull to drain the fluid and keep the swelling down.

Kaydence was in a coma for six days, Footman said, which is actually impressive considering the doctors estimated her to be in a coma for two to three weeks.

In addition, Kaydence developed pneumonia and a blood infection while in the intensive care unit, which according to Footman, are both common after such trauma.

Footman said Kaydence was transferred to the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital in Portland on Sunday where she is now undergoing physical, occupational and speech therapy to build back muscle and work on getting back to her old self.

“She has left-side facial droop which just means that she has no expression on that side,” Footman explained, of her daughter’s condition.

Kaydence remains in Portland, where she will stay for two weeks, Footman said.

“We should be going home shortly after her two-week mark,” she said, Tuesday.

“My four-year-old baby girl woke up a week before expected; talking to us like she did before, moving all around trying to pick up her head, and moving herself around in bed,” Footman posted Tuesday afternoon to a special Facebook page she created, “Love, Prayers and Fundraisers for Kaydence.”

“She is still able to do everything. She could even spell her first and last name!”

“I’m more than relieved,” Footman said. “Words cannot describe how grateful I am that she is okay.”

For months to come, Kaydence will continue to do physical therapy and will visit the doctor for check-ups two to three times a week until she no longer needs it, mom said.
