This is the story about a little girl called Anniston Jade. When she was 3 years old she was involved in a car accident. Her story shows us how quick our entire lives can change, in the blink of an eye…

I can not begin to describe how such a thing is like, how it feels like or how devastating it is. Words escape me.

Her family wished for her story to spread so that more and more will know the importance of using the correct car seats in the car. Little Anniston Jade is a victim of the law. Because in the eyes of the law, she was fine… but the law does not favour reality and her parents bless them, didn’t know any different.

Please take the time to read her story, learn from it, educate others as I try to educate, because when I pester you all again and again about keeping your children correctly fitted in the car seats in the car, it is because I am desperately trying to prevent something like this happening to them should you ever be involved in an accident. Anniston lost her life on January 22nd 2014, but with her body she saved lives, and her legacy will live on to help others and teach us the importance of using the correct car seats.

 

My thoughts go to her family and friends.

A Year Later – The Story of Anniston Jade

On January 12, 2014, my life was forever changed by one phone call. “Baby, I had a wreck” was all I heard on the other end of the phone talking to our daughters dad. In a split second, our lives changed by a brief moment that caused the car to go into the other lane of oncoming traffic.

There is also a Facebook group called  ‘Car Seat Advice for Mummies and Daddies’   & A – Z of Rear Facing that can help you find the perfect seat for your car and your child.

Remember! Not all car seats fit all cars!

 

 

 

I am linking this post up to a lot of linkys this week to try and spread her story even more.
