On October 7th, 2024, a 16-month-old girl choked on a handful of goldfish crackers resulting in a partial obstruction. Protocol was not followed. LifeVac removed the obstruction on its second use. The child’s mother describes the incident as follows:
“I’m so grateful for LifeVac, really. When my mom purchased them for every family member, we all kind of laughed, as they were wrapped and under the tree on Christmas morning. I’m not kidding! Every family member got a LifeVac for Christmas (and a fire blanket!) She told us it was “the gift of life”, and that “you never know… and you never expect bad things to happen.” SHE WAS RIGHT… as all mama’s usually are.
I am forever GRATEFUL that I had it where I did, nearby. We have a shoe storage pocket hanging on the inside of our pantry door- we have stored the LifeVac (with the correct size face mask INSTALLED) in an eye level pocket. My daughter has never choked on anything where I had felt the need to use the LifeVac until yesterday! I was nearly about to call 911- or rather- ask our Alexa to dial 911.. can you even do that? We had never used the LifeVac and let me tell you, when I saw my husband instantly grab it from the door, I felt so calm- it’s intuitive use is what saved my daughter. I am so proud that I was able to stay calm, it really felt like time stopped as she was choking so severely. As a momma and an educator, I will forever recommend, the LifeVac is a MUST have for anyone!”
