On February 11th, 2026, a 13-month-old boy choked on a cracker during snack time. His mother was alone at home during a snowstorm. She used NovaCare and removed the obstruction within seconds.
"We were snowed in. Roads weren’t plowed. My husband was stuck at work. My son was eating crackers in his high chair and a piece got lodged in his throat. He couldn’t cough it out. Even if I called 911, they couldn’t reach us in the snow. I grabbed the NovaCare and pressed. The cracker came right out. He started crying immediately. I held him and rocked him for the next hour. The scariest part wasn’t the choking. It was knowing that nobody could get to us. No ambulance. No neighbor. No husband. Just me and NovaCare. And that was enough. One press was all it took."
