These cases are usually lumped in somewhere else. My husband is from Texas, and he mentioned that there are many children who are taken to a hospital (or have died) with concerns about breathing or heat -- parents mostly don't mention that they were left in a car for any amount of time, because many problems actually occur after the event. It is frustrating, and my opponents here feel it quite necessary to belittle every item I bring to them. THanks for everyone's help so far, keep the ideas coming! Marian
