His phone had been charging so that his alarm for school would ring in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>But when Rayce rolled over, his metal necklace came in contact with the exposed prongs of the charger plug in the extension cord.<\/p>\n<p>The contact caused a surge of power to pass through the necklace, which scorched the teenager\u2019s neck.<\/p>\n<p>The mom added the horrible\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.newsner.com\/tag\/accident\/\">accident<\/a>\u00a0that happened, \u201cBecause everything was metal, it made a complete circuit around his neck.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rayce was reportedly \u2018completely conscious throughout the whole thing and aware he was being electrocuted.\u2019 He felt pain as the voltage surged through his body.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe said this all happened within a matter of seconds and he visibly saw sparks coming from his neck,\u201d the mom\u00a0shared. \u201cHe told me his whole body hurt and he thought he was going to die.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After she heard the screams and saw the damage, she immediately rushed her\u00a0child\u00a0to Integris Health Baptist Medical Center in\u00a0Oklahoma.<\/p>\n<p>After doctors checked him, they informed that Rayce had suffered from second, third, and fourth-degree burns. They also told them that he had been shocked with enough amps of voltage to have killed him.<\/p>\n<p>He had scars covering almost his \u2018entire neck\u2019 that started from his chin to his collarbone. You can see the pattern of the necklace on his skin because of the accident.<\/p>\n<p>She noted that the accident has made her son \u2018a lot more self-aware\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0mother\u00a0resolved, \u201cWe\u2019re just so grateful he\u2019s OK. He could\u2019ve easily died that night. It was amazing he was still conscious and could still alert us. It would\u2019ve been a different story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She is now issuing a warning to others, saying, \u201cWhen it comes to your phone, there\u2019s not a text message or notification that is important enough to have your phone on your bed. Anything can happen and Rayce is proof of that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPay attention to your cords and I would recommend to anybody don\u2019t use extension cords at all,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>All in all, we are glad Rayce is doing better.
