Who says the world does not have enough love? Even a seven-year-old understands what love is as you will see. Selethia Parker and her daughter, seven-year-old Alexis Goggins were abducted in December 07 by Parker’s ex-boyfriend Calvin Tillie. Parker managed to call the Detroit police in the middle but was not able to stop what was about to happen. Tillie started shooting at Parker unconcerned about the little girl. The spunky seven-year-old jumped in front of her mother using her tiny little body as a shield her mother from the fusillade of bullets.

Alexis blocked six gunshots from hitting her mother. The bullets pierced her right eye, chin, cheek, chest and jaw. When police arrived to the scene, they found Alexis in a pool of blood, curled beneath the steering wheel. Parker also had been shot in the side of the head and the arm. Both Parker and her daughter survived, though Alexis endured two painful months in the hospital and underwent six surgeries. Despite doctors' prediction that Alexis may never walk or talk again, Alexis is thriving. As for Tillie, he is being charged with two counts of assault with intent to commit murder. May he rest in hell.
