The most comprehensive car seat for special needs children, the Carrot 3 provides optimal positioning for insufficient head, trunk, and pelvic stability with extensive growth.
Mom Kimberly writes: “I have been avoiding car rides with my autistic son because they can be life-threatening as his behaviors can become so severe. During one of our recent car rides my son Kaedon was punching and hitting himself repeatedly until he began to bleed. He already has bruises, so my heart is completely ripped apart during these moments. He has figured out how to slide his way out of two other car seats and even reaches over to unbuckle the main seat belt.”
One in 68 children in the United States is diagnosed to fit within the Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and autism guidelines for diagnoses. It affects 3 million individuals in the United States and tens of millions of people worldwide.
Kimberly continues, “When he struggles free of his car seat, he places himself on the floor kicking and screaming while my other children panic as I try to find the nearest exit on the Interstate. You can only sit so long on the side of a highway before that becomes dangerous, too.”
“I am beyond depressed and running out of hope, so in my search I found you,” Kimberly stated in her application for an ACT Today! grant, specifically requesting a Convaid Carrot 3 car seat.
On December 19, 2016, Convaid donated a Carrot 3 car seat to the family and threw a small holiday party at our North Carolina R82 offices.
Looking forward to 2017, Kimberly writes, “Whatever words of thanks I write are not enough. My life is forever changed.”
