The couple on The Today show
In July, the parents came on The Today Show to share their tragedy with the viewers and make people aware of such incidents. Morgan said:
“There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t pray for the opportunity to go back to that day and make it different. But now we have this opportunity to make other parents’ days different. “
“We have the choice to live our days with purpose, to make sure that no other parents had to feel what we’re feeling,”
She also narrated how the whole episode had unfolded on 10 June.
They were at their neighbor’s with the kids and suddenly Morgan realized that Emmy was not around. They looked for her.
The desperate mother saw light coming from the door which led to the backyard. Suspecting something terrible, she moved towards it.
She described:
“I opened the door and she was floating in the pool. And I ran and jumped in,”
She jumped into the pool and brought the body out of the pool while the neighbor called 911. She began to provide CPR to her baby.
The baby was shifted to intensive care. Things seemed hopeful at first but worsened and the baby died the next day.
The father said:
“The doctor said her brain had just not had enough oxygen for too long of a time,”
