On February 4th, 2026, a 2-year-old boy choked on a cherry tomato at dinner. His mother was home alone with him and his sleeping newborn. She used NovaCare and cleared the obstruction on the first press.
"I had just put the baby down and was feeding my toddler dinner. I cut the cherry tomato in half but he shoved both pieces in at once. He started gagging and then went completely quiet. The baby was asleep upstairs. It was just me. I grabbed the NovaCare from the counter ā I keep it right next to the paper towels so itās always there ā and pressed. The tomato came out. He cried, the baby woke up, and I stood in the kitchen with both of them screaming and just thanked God. One button. Thatās all it took. Being a mom alone with two kids and having a choking emergency is the most terrifying thing. But NovaCare made it simple. Grab it. Press it. Done."
