  • Life Is To Short To Keep Saying NO

    Mum shares a really important message after nearly losing her daughter…

    ‘Life is way too short to say NO all of the time. This time last year she asked me if she could have pink hair and I said no. A few days later at a camp they were doing a demonstration involving fire and something went wrong and it caught her on fire. She had horrible burns over 70% of her body. This time last year we were in the hospital with her not knowing if she was going to live or not. So this time when she asked me if she could have pink hair, I said yes. That experience taught me you never know how much time you have left, with anyone. So say yes more often, and don’t care if anyone thinks your child with pink hair is ridiculous !! 😍😍🤓🤓 (within reason lol)

  • Mum Used Her Last Breathe To Save Her Baby

    Wyoming, Illinois, is a small town with only about 1,400 residents.
     This small tight-knit community was where 21-year-old Shelby Ann Carter wanted to have a family.

    She and her fiancé lived with her mum. Shelby worked as a beautician and had started studying to become a pharmacy technician. Then, in January 2017, she gave birth to her daughter Keana Davis. Shelby was so happy to be a mum and was looking forward to watching her daughter grow.


    But unfortunately, her happiness was about to come to tragic end.

    “She was making her mark in town,” said the town’s mayor”

     But on January 30th  only one day after her 21st birthday — tragedy struck.

     Shelby was at home with her baby when a fire broke out. 

    She called the emergency services  for help and told them that she was having trouble breathing. She hadn’t said anything about her baby which led to some confusion when firefighters finally reached the scene.
    Emergency responders found Shelby on the 2nd floor of her house, but it was too late — she had died of carbon monoxide poisoning. But when they finally put out the flames and looked at the scene, they found something truly astonishing: Shelby’s 12-day-old daughter! What had happened?

    Although the house was engulfed in flames, Shelby didn’t let that stop her from doing all she could to save her baby. 
    Finding herself and her daughter trapped on the 2nd floor, she quickly came up with an ingenious idea and rescued Keana Davis by strapping her into a car seat and dropping her out of the window. Shelby had obviously used her last ounce of strength to make sure that her precious baby girl survived.

    “I guess it’s the motherly instinct to take care of their young. We’re all wondering why she didn’t go out after the baby,” explained the chief of the local volunteer fire department.

    Keana Davis was rushed to the hospital where it was determined that she was completely unharmed. She was released to the custody of her family. 

    Keana Davis will never have the chance to know her mum, but at least she can be proud of her. Shelby is a true hero and will be dearly missed by all who knew her, her local community banded together to raise funds to help Shelbys family.
