HOME TOWN’s Erin Napier: Doctors ‘Worked a Miracle’ After Their 3-Year-Old’s Leg Injury

By MovieguideĀ® Staff

HGTV star Erin Napier updated fans on her daughter’s recovery her 3-year-old injured her leg.Ā Ā 

Erin Napier, who hosts HOME TOWN with her husband Ben Napier, shared that her 3-year-old daughter, Helen, suffered an accident while playing on a playground slide.

“A fun day at the park turned into a fully broken tibia and fibula when she stepped wrong at the end of a slide,” Erin wrote under a picture of her child’s pink cast and of Ben sleeping next to Helen’s crib. “So thankful to have @scotsman.co [Ben] beside me (and sharing nights on the floor by her crib) when = parenting during a pandemic gets even more nerve racking.”

In another update, Erin explained that doctors had to “rebreak” Helen’s leg to allow for a healthy recovery.

“It took a procedure with general anesthesia (šŸ˜°), rebreak and resetting her leg bones with a full leg cast once we made it back home to Mississippi, but my baby girl finally felt great today,” Erin said. “Dr. Kosko at @southernbonehattiesburg worked a miracle for Helen yesterday (and Higgy the tiger didn’t hurt, thank you for that @sullivangrams and @therealrachelsullivan šŸ’“).”

Erin added: “She’s gotten well wishes from around the world and wanted me to tell y’all: ‘Thank you for checking on me!'”

The Napier’s are candid about their faith and shared how they want to maximize their time with Helen.Ā Ā

The adorable Mississippi couple sat down with People magazine to discuss how they go about making their 3-year-old daughter, Helen, their top priority.

ā€œWe say no to a lot of opportunities,ā€ Erin told the magazine.

ā€œFor 18 years we get to be an influence in her life. I want those years to be really good and happy and healthy, because we can never get them back,ā€ Erin said. ā€œNo matter how great an opportunity or amount of money, nothing is worth missing out on memories together with Helen.ā€

To make it work, the couple has a general rule for traveling: ā€œIf somebody wants us to come and speak at something or thereā€™s an appearance or work-related trip, we say, ā€˜If we can do it in two nights or less then we can come. But if itā€™s going to be three nights, then we have to bring our nanny and Helen and we need you to foot the bill for that,ā€ Erin said.
