In 1986, Marilyn Adams' son, Keith, was killed when he was submerged in flowing corn in a gravity-flow grain wagon. At the time, this hazard was virtually unknown. Marilyn's story tells about the impact of this loss and her first year of recovery. She found her way back from grief through a sense of purpose: she decided to start an organization, Farm Safety 4 Just Kids, in order to alert farm parents to the hazard that had killed Keith and the many other agricultural hazards that lead to the death and injury of children on farms. The statistics of agricultural death and injury tell a powerful story, but it is a story in numbers. This video puts faces on the statistics. It is easy to dismiss talk about percentages and trends, but to look into a mother's eyes as she tells the story of her child's death is impossible to ignore. This video certainly has an important message for agricultural audiences, but it can also be an important tool for helping audiences or individuals coping with grief and loss.
