San Francisco woman paralyzed after 100-Pound tree branch lands on Her!

A nearly 100-pound tree limb landed on head and lower back of a San Francisco woman at Washington Square Park, which left her paralyzed.

The giant branch collapsed nearly 60-feet and fell on Cui Zhou as she was watching her two children play in the park.

Emergency crews rushed to the scene to provide assistance, and admitted the 36-year-old woman to San Francisco General Hospital.

NBC Bay Area reported, the victim said that, "I can't move by myself." She is in a lot of pain and will never be able to walk again because the branch fractured her skull and severed her spinal cord.

"It shouldn't happen to anybody in the park," Jian Cong Tan, Zhou's husband, said. "Nobody should suffer like this."

"We will go to rehab," he said, to help his wife walk again.

According to the police, the 9 and 5 year old children saw the branch fall. "They saw pretty much what happened and they were really scared," Tan said. "They didn't know what to do at the moment."

Although the children are "much better now," Tan said they "don't eat a lot" and are "always thinking of their mom."

"They always ask, Where's Mom? I want to see Mom.”
