Bode Miller's Wife, Morgan Beck Miller is on a mission to raise awareness about drowning, in the wake of their three-year-old's tragic death.

 

The tot, Emeline Grier sadly passed away on June 11 when she drowned in a backyard pool accident.

 

The 19-month-old's parents are now determined to educate everyone about water safety, so parents never feel the pain they are going through.

 

Morgan posted a picture of Emeline in the snow on Instagram, along with a message about her heartbreaking passing.

"It’s been 37 days since I’ve held my baby girl. I pray to God no other parent feels this pain.

  

"My heart is with you @nicolehughes8 as we walk this journey together. And thank you @scarymommy for helping us spread awareness. 
PLEASE READ! Link in bio! Drowning is the NUMBER ONE cause of death in children ages one to four." 

 

The 31-year went on to highlight just how fast an accident can happen around water. 

 

We talk about vaccinations, car seats, organic foods, screen time, etc at length...but not the number one risk your childrens’ lives face...a silent killer. It takes SECONDS. Please share and help us spread awareness. It’s the first step to preventing these types of tragedies."

In a previous post, Morgan said they will honour the little girl by trying to save other children's lives.

 

"We are inspired to make our baby girls memory go forth and help prevent as many drownings as possible," the mum wrote.

 

Bode Millar and Morgan wed in 2012 and share two children together, which includes their late daughter.

 

However, just before Emeline's accident, the couple had announced they were expecting a third child together.

Bode has echoed his wife's words about the danger of water for toddlers and young children. 

 

Their heartbreak is a warning to all parents about just how quick a drowning can occur. You can never be too safe when it comes to children and water safety.

 

We are sending our thoughts to their family during this difficult time.
