My 16-Year-Old Son Saved a 5-Year-Old Girl from an Avalanche – and the Next Day We Received a Note with Unsettling Instructions

My Son Ran Toward Danger—and Saved a Life

We thought the worst was over after my son pulled a little girl from the snow. We were wrong.

Hiking in Colorado, an avalanche struck. Kellan ran toward the sound of crying, digging out a five-year-old girl named Dove with his bare hands. She survived. Her mother didn’t.

The next day, a mysterious note demanded we meet alone, mentioning a whistle only rescuers had. Fear turned to suspicion—but the truth was even stranger. Dove’s mother had been hiding from someone dangerous, and our address had been leaked.

Days later, the threat was contained. A week after that, another note arrived: “You’re protected now.”

Kellan said quietly, “I just ran toward someone who needed help.” One brave choice changed everything. ❤️
