Button Cell Batteries. Who Knew?

Today is the day that my Adam graduates from high school.  Since it's such a busy day, I am going to take this opportunity to spread the word on an issue most of us have never considered to be a threat.

A very close family friend, Renee Garcia, had a recent scare with one of her children last month.  Her young daughter Kellsey, without Renee knowing, swallowed two button cell batteries.  An act that landed her in the hospital for weeks, in critical condition.

Their local Colorado Springs news station picked up the story, and interviewed Renee, and Kellsey's doctor.  Wanting to spread the word of the dangers, I thought I'd share their harrowing story with my readers.

When you click the link, it will take you to Renee's Blog page.  Once there, you will see the video box with a play button.
