VIDEO: The family of Ezekiel Adkins tells KETV Newswatch 7 the 1-year-old is in Iowa City receiving treatment after being trapped in a Council Bluffs house fire.
Firefighters rescued him and his 3-year-old brother, Jameson, from the flames Friday night.
Jameson was treated for smoke inhalation and slight burns, but Ezekiel has burns covering 60% of his body. Their grandfather, Dave Smith, said Ezekiel has a lot of lung damage.
The young boy was flown to the burn center at CHI Health St. Elizabeth in Lincoln Friday night.
"He made it through the night, which was a miracle in itself. We're seeing a light at the end of the tunnel," he said.
Medical officials flew Ezekiel to the University of Iowa's Children's Hospital early Saturday morning.
Smith said in Iowa City, the Children's Hospital has a machine that can take the carbon dioxide from Ezekiel's blood.
