Crib Warnig for the Sunday crowd...

For those of you that do not know my story,,,here it is:
On Thursday, 20SEP07 my wife and I awoke to my baby, 13 months old at 24 lbs, screaming and hearing a banging noise. It was more unusual than her early morning wake ups, she’s usually all smiles and happy. My wife looked into the video monitor and believed the crib was broken. I ran in the room and to my disbelief the crib separated at one top corner. She was screaming because her hand was being hit from holding the side rail with her right hand and with her left hand hanging onto the front rail that came loose. Unknown to her, she was pinching her fingers. It was obvious then that the hole drilled to secure the rails together was too close to the edge. When they manufactured the crib and put an anchor or bushing into the hole, it just cracked the wood making it a time bomb. There are stress cracks on 3 top corners of the crib were the bolts enters. This whole crib could have fallen apart. We never even noticed this assembling this crib. If we had not noticed this in our monitor, she might have tried to get out and possibly get trapped. It could have been a disaster.

Mr. Bellissimo contacted me personally about a week ago expressing his sincere concern after he noticed a letter from me on his wifes web page. He was so concerned and I believe he was the one to finally get the wheels turning. As soon as he saw my pictures he knew there was a problem and decided something had to be done. Finally.
I know some people don’t watch the news because we are on the computer too much. Maybe this will help those people like me…
This has situation occurred 38 days ago. I have been on this one man crusade to do something about it.
Please pass around.....
