  • Reese Hamsmith died more than a month after swallowing a button battery. What initially resembled a cold turned out to be symptoms directly connected to the ingestion of the battery. Eventually the 18-month-old suffered from a fistula, or a hole that ran from the esophagus and through the trachea. Reese died on Dec. 18, 2020, and now her family wants to spread awareness to make sure that the same thing doesn’t happen to other children.

    I think it's incredible that she noticed the battery was missing. Something so small... And she acted immediately on it. But too much damage had already been done so fast. She was was truly a great mother to Reese. I hope she finds peace.

      I was thinking the same thing...i dont have kids so there’s no reason for me to keep tabs on things like that but my first thought was holly cow good for her for even noticing something so tiny!!! Even with catching it she still couldn’t save her...thats got to be hard but like she said...she served a big purpose...i had NO idea!!!

      I refuse to bring button batteries in my house after my oldest daughter almost out one in her mouth. it was the Disney phone and keys set they still sell at Walmart. I went to change the battery thinking it was a triple a and a small round button fell out and she scooped it up and I immediately grabbed it and threw the whole toy in the trash

      Really? You think it's incredible? Maybe. Incredibly stupid. She knew the battery was there. Why would you have anything that a baby can harm themselves with in arms reach? That is bad parenting.

      @@robbb416 They may have only realized there had been a button battery until they noticed a device with the battery compartment open. Once they saw how tiny the spot for the missing battery was, they realized what happened. They clearly hadn’t expected any batteries to be falling out. If they had realized the danger, they would have taken precautions, but obviously they didn’t know until it was too late.

      I was a little over a year old and I swallowed a round magnet and my mom took me to the hospital after having a bad fever. They said it was a cold and send her home. She didn’t know what to do and remembered some old recipe shredded raw potato and squeezing out only the juice, she made me drink it and that got it out.

      I searched up just right now and saw a study about starches property used as a anti-corrosive measure for metals.
      The thing you drank was raw starch which PH levels is 8 which is alkaline.

That was an absolute tragedy, the real sad part is that poor mother now trying to convince our brainless, thoughtless incompetent lawmakers to move on something that shouldn't require a second thought. They should be forced to watch this video every damn day until something is done to change what is so simple to fix. Never stop trying mom, so, so sorry for your loss.
