    They're reporting on the news here that the boy is still in critical condition. Obviously it's concerning how long he was under water and may have suffered oxygen deprivation. My prayers are with him and his family.

    Oh dear, this is worse than the original article. I see the change in the last article update from serious to critical condition. Hoping that he makes a full recovery.

    You have stated things so well. Incredibly sad and this time must be almost unbearable for the family. Words really fail to say what most of us feel at this time. Condolences to and prayers for the family.

    my heart hurts, but the only consolation is that this kid was probably having the time of his too short life. obviously none of us wants to die, but if i had a choice, running out the clock in WDW would be it for me. Godspeed, buddy.

    I read that story and gasped. What a horrible tragedy. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
    Disney has some of the finest lifeguards around. You can tell they take their jobs seriously.
    Does anyone know the reason that Disney stops lifeguard protection at 8 p.m. even though the pools stay open?

    Probably because it costs a lot of money to fully staff pools 24/7, and you really can't shut down the quiet pools at the resorts without people getting up in arms about it.

    Plus, it is VERY difficult for lifeguards to do thier job after dark. Reflections of lights off the water, limited visibility, etc. I'm sure they'd rather not take the liability risk.

    Swimming is dangerous. Swimming at night, moreso.

    In any event, this is a very sad situation for this family. I can't imagine how they are feeling right now.

    What a nightmare for his family. This is such a sad and sobering reminder that tragedy can strike everywhere, even at Disney.
