“The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” star Alfonso Ribeiro’s daughter, Ava Sue, had a scooter accident that led to injuries needing surgery. The incident happened just a day before her fourth birthday.
Ava Sue fell off her sit-down scooter, resulting in severe scarring, bruising, and burns on her right elbow, shoulder, and around her right eye.
Both Alfonso and his wife, Angela Ribeiro, posted updates on Ava Sue’s condition.
“Not the kind of day you want the day before turning 4. Just want to give a heartfelt thank you to Kare MD Skin Health for the emergency service and procedure to help lessen the likelihood of scarring.
So proud of how brave my baby girl was during the surgery,” Alfonso wrote, sharing photos of his daughter and expressing gratitude to the medical staff for their quick action.
Angela, on the other hand, said she had a feeling something bad would happen, calling it a motherly instinct.
“I announced to the fam, kids, sitter & friends helping out getting ready for Ava’s birthday party that ‘we are not doing anything crazy or dangerous today that could potentially end up with an ER visit.’ I literally made everyone lock eyes to me when I said these words,” she posted.
Shortly after her mom’s prediction, Ava Sue fell off the scooter.
When Ava Sue was taken to Kare MD Skin Health, Dr. Raffy decided she needed surgery to minimize the risk of potential scarring.
“Not a fun way to spend your last day as a 3-year-old, but she was a trooper,” the mom wrote. “Giving this sweet girl some extra cuddles tonight.”
The staff at Kare MD Skin Health took their time to wish their young patient a very happy birthday through their Instagram and thank Alfonso for trusting them with his daughter.
“Thank you for the very kind words, Alfonso. We are so honored to take care of your precious princess Ava. Best wishes for a speedy recovery,” they wrote in the caption.
We wish sweet Ava Sue a speedy recovery and a very happy birthday.
