On March 5th, 2026, a 3-year-old girl choked on a grape at a restaurant. Her mother used NovaCare and removed the obstruction immediately.
"We were at a restaurant for dinner with friends. My daughter grabbed a whole grape from the appetizer plate before I could cut it. She went completely silent. Everyone at the table froze. I pulled the NovaCare out of my purse ā I carry it everywhere ā and pressed. The grape came out in one second. She started coughing and then crying. The entire restaurant went quiet and then people started clapping. A waiter asked me what the device was. I told him. He wrote it down. I donāt care if people think Iām paranoid for carrying it in my purse. One press saved my daughter in a room full of people. Nobody else could have done anything that fast. Nobody."
