A 5 year old child passed away from choking on a her favorite snack during the period of time when she was sitting in the rear seat of her mother’s vehicle. An Aussie child from New South Wales, named Imogen Lennon, was already on her return trip with her mother Sam on January 16 after concluding her swim training. The daughter and the mother duo were talking as the child was enjoying her frankfurter sausage when she started suffocating, according to close friend Tamara Harrison in a GoFundMe page.
The information about the Aussie child from the GoFundMe states: “Imogen was a bright, determined, loving and sassy 5yr old who sadly grew her wings on Monday the 16th of January due to the most tragic and unlikely event. “Imogen’s Mum Sam picked Imogen up from swimming lessons on the afternoon of the 16th. On the drive home, Imogen was happily eating a deli frankfurt( a favourite after swimming) and chatting away to her mum from the back seat, when she suddenly started choking.
“Despite Sam’s heroic efforts, ringing an ambulance, the help of a passerby and eventually driving Imogen to the hospital herself ( the ambulance was too far away to make it in time ) Beautiful Imogen passed away later at the hospital.” Moreover, Harrison added: “To make sense of such a tragic loss in such a way is inconceivable, there are no words that could accurately describe how shattered Imogen’s family are. It is Impossible to Imagine life without Imogen.”

A close friend said: “Anyone that knows this couple knows that they are true Aussie battlers, always helping others. They would give the shirts off their backs, without a second thought should someone be in need. “The burden of trying to find the money to pay for Imogen’s final resting place and a fitting celebration of her short life is a burden that I would like to remove for this family, while they deal with such an unthinkable tragedy. “I know they will be eternally grateful for any assistance, big or small.”
The fund page donors are seen contributing and sharing their condolences. Moreover, some wrote a comment with a very sympathetic approach:
I’m so incredibly sorry for the heartbreaking loss of beautiful Imogen, in such a tragic and sudden way. I don’t know you and your family but my thoughts and love are with you all regardless. No one should ever have to face this. I know nothing anything of us say or do will take away the pain. She loves you always as you do her. Be gentle with yourselves.
Someone else commented:
We are so sorry, Samantha and Bill. We only met Immy once but she was so bright, bubbly and beautiful we’ll remember her always that way. With love, Tim and Melody.
