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. Check out our website http://www.stopat4.com/ to learn more.

Im am so moved by this campaign and want to help in anyway I can. Parker was the most incredible little boy and he must be so proud of his family right now, I know we all are.
ReplyDeleteI am in Arizona and last week another 10 month old fell from a two story apartment building. He fortunately is doing ok but this a very real problem.
