CelebNSports247.com has learned some terribly sad news about Reno Mahe, who is now having to deal with this devastating death of his daughter.

According to Baller Alert, Elsie accidentally strangled herself while playing in window blinds.

The tragic accident happened at the Mahe family’s Utah home on November 22. Elsie was playing with a friend when somehow the cord from the window blinds became twisted and wrapped around her neck. The family does not know how long the toddler was entangled. Sunny Mahe, Elsie’s mother, began performing CPR until paramedics arrived. She was taken to Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City where she was pronounced brain dead.

On Tuesday, November 29, Reno Mahe broke the news of Elsie’s death to family and friends via a heartbreaking post on Instagram.

Reno Mahe explained the situation:

“Mark 10:14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

My brother showed me this scripture this week and it has brought me additional peace and different perspective. It has been quite a roller coaster awaiting Elsie’s transition, but she hasn’t finished showing us miracles.

Sunday morning, before I posted my previous update, the doctors gave Elsie a breathing test. She was still breathing over the ventilator, so they wanted to test out how she would do on her own. They turned back the machine to more of a standby mode and she breathed on her own for about 30 minutes. Then, they felt like they saw some seizure activity, so they turned the ventilator back on and she was no longer taking breaths of her own.
This was the steady decline I mentioned and the eventual path to this decline would be neurological death, or brain death. For us, this would mean we would be spared the decision of removing support and waiting for her heart to stop or cutting her throat to put in a tracheotomy and taking her home to die of a contracted illness – both of which likely would result in her no longer being a candidate for organ donation.

However, sometime in the afternoon, she began again taking spontaneous breaths. When we spoke to the doctors Sunday evening, they indicated that once the swelling in the brain stops, it is very unlikely to restart. So they felt that most likely Elsie had leveled out and would not decline any further.

I was simply broken by this news and the options that it left for us. I prayed for understanding since it seemed that we had been given clear direction and then that was taken away.

But Elsie was not through showing us miracles. At 8:00 yesterday morning, the doctors told us that they believed she had another seizure and was again no longer breathing over the ventilator. Reno and I wept with gratitude to our Heavenly Father that Elsie would be granted a peaceful passing and would be able to save lives through her physical body still. As we considered the experience of her miraculous breathing and decline, we cannot help”

Reno Mahe statement about Elise Mahe:

“Our Elsie girl has officially been released to heaven — at least from a worldly, paperwork stand point. Her second neurological death exam was also positive for brain death. We feel peace and we are again so grateful for the privilege of being Elsie’s parents.”

Elsie was the second youngest of eight children.

Reno Mahe played with the Philadelphia Eagles from 2003 to 2007. He now coaches running backs at Brigham Young University.

Our condolences goes out to the Mahe family. RIP Elise
