A mother's love….
If you still have Facebook you’re mental
awesome mom, love from the bahamas
Your son is lost at sea ofc you get your phone to film the rescue…not fake at all…wait can you return in water we need another shot…
Facebook people, ‘nuf said.
Some people just know. I’ve felt thinks that have helped me in life. It’s hard to explain almost like something is guiding you or a feeling. Anyhow glad you found him !!
Lock him up. This criminal must not allow to get away again
Mom radar is pretty amazing, but please invest in that GPS for the next time you go out there. Moms are tenacious.
W0W, Thank you Jesus! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😭 I'm so, so gland your found Dillon🙏🏾
He’s born twice!
Yay! So nice to hear a happy ending, a miracle thanks to Mom! 💟
Mama Bear, 🐻 don't mess with her cubs!
I'm glad they found him, but they had no business doing that kind of speed right beside a dock with moored boats. Those areas are always considered no wake slow zones, for obvious reasons. In doing so, they put others at risk. It's like speeding through a neighbourhood of parked cars in a city.
Met them on Facebook? How long were they out there waiting for him, and what's the reason they left????
The Coast Guard is pretty good even in Florida, something doesn't sound right about this story…
PLEASE tell me the absolute F*** IGNORANT IDIOTS who left him out there are going to jail!
Ok, I’m normally not one to be pessimistic about a feel good story of any kind, but this one seems just a little fishy to me. 🤔
Wow
America needs wins like this. Jesus is LORD
Mothers are super heroes❤️ I would move mountains and fly to the moon for my boy
Something should be done to those folks that left him behind….shameful and reckless they are!! 🤬
I need to know if the Facebook group even alerted authorities. If they knew he was missing and did nothing, charge their a**es
I am asking so before anyone gets all "actually" I don't know so I am asking. I primarily hang out in freshwater where a PFD, whistle, and appropriate wear save your life. How hard is it to have a waterproof or secured radio, light, beacon, air tag, flare, satellite phone, or some type of way to notify where you are in the event that you are swept out? The inflatable saved him for sure.
Also, the people that left him, should NEVER be allowed to operate a boat again. That's not how you do it even in freshwater. You stay where they were or start searching the area. You don't go home.
God shows the way sometimes.
That is a true miracle WOW
❤
I believe we have some psychic GPS that can be channeled, I was able to find my mother's house across the country when I never seen a picture of it the town
love you mom ❤💐💪
