Day at the Capital went great! Koin 6 news was there and aired their coverage friday at 5pm and 6pm. The web address I have added is of Emily is a mother who's daugther fell from their 2nd story window a year ago friday. She shares her story and shares the same hope that by speaking out it will help prevent this from happening to another family.

The Campaign to Stop Window Falls grew out of concern by injury prevention specialists who were seeing a high number of children entering the trauma system in Oregon from falling out of second-story windows during warm weather. While relatively few children die from this, one child, Parker Reck, died in 2009. My son, who I miss every second of everyday. This campaign is dedicated to the memory of Parker.

This blog is set up to help get the word out about window falls. Please keep in mind that I lost my son to a window fall and only hope by sharing my story it can educate others. Preventing it from happening to another family. It has been a long road since that day and we have come a long way. Excited to launch our campaign the first week in April of this year.
