VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

McDonalds, Chuck E Cheese, Burger King, Discovery
Zone... All places with ball pits
in the children*s play area. One of my
sons lost his watch, and was
very upset.

We dug and dug in those balls, trying to
find his watch. Instead, we
found vomit,
food, feces, and other stuff I do not
want to discuss.

I went to the manager and raised hell.
Come to find out, the ball pit
is only cleaned out
once a month. I have doubts that it is
even done that often. My kids
will never play in
another ball pit.

Some of you might not be parents, but
you may have nieces, nephews,
grandchildren, or
friends with children. This will pertain
to you too. As I read the
following, my heart sank. I urge each
and every one of you to pass this
on to as many people as you can. I
cannot stress how important this is!

Hi. My name is Lauren Archer, my son
Kevin and I lived in Midland , TN.

On October 2nd, 1999 I took my only son
to McDonald's for his 3rd
birthday.

After he finished lunch, I allowed him
to play in the ball pit. When he
started whining later on, I asked him
what was wrong, he pointed to the
back of his pull-up and simply said
'Mommy, it hurts.' I couldn't find
anything wrong with him at that time. I
bathed him when we got home, and
it was at that point when I found a welt
on his left buttock.

Upon investigating, it seemed as if
there was something like a splinter
under the welt. I made an
appointment to see the doctor the next
day, but soon he started
vomiting and shaking, then his eyes
rolled back into his head. From
there, we went to the emergency
room. He died later that night.

It turned out that the welt on his
buttock was the tip of a hypodermic
needle that
had broken off inside.

The autopsy revealed that Kevin had died
from a heroine overdose. The
next week,
the police removed the balls from the
ball pit. There was rotten food,
several
hypodermic needles: some full, some
used; knives, half-eaten candy,
diapers, feces, and
the stench of urine.

Wake up Adults, Parents, Anyone that wants their chidren to be safe...

About all I can think of to say, as my stomach turns, is "Oh, my God! What next?"

I believe it! Just drive down any highway, street or drive through any parking lot, or any other public gathering area, it seems people throw trash where ever and when ever they want There are very few people out there in this world that care or consider what their carelessness and outright pigish behavior may inflinct or infect another person's life, and than you have PCer's a rare breed if you ask me<. You guys are the best in human kindness (((((((HUGS))))))
