Stuffed Animal Saves Young Boy's 16-Foot-Fall
MASSACHUSETTS (CBS) -- A young boy in Massachusetts is lucky to be alive after a 16-foot-fall onto concrete.
Two-year-old Eduardo Gomez was jumping on his bed on Wednesday when he fell out of a second-floor window.

Luckily he was holding on to a large stuffed cow at the time that ended up cushioning him from the worst of the impact.
"He was pretty lucky," said his mother. "He had a teddy bear twice his size so that saved his life."
Eduardo is back home now after a brief stay in the hospital, and he has been reunited with that stuffed cow.
"It broke his fall so the injuries are minor," said an official.
