Event Description

Our daughter was sleeping like she normally does with her bedwetting alarm, she was injured at night from the device malfunctioning.She was using another brand ((b)(6)) before, but it broke so we purchased this new alarm to replace the (b)(6).We purchased it from (b)(6) and it was in new condition.The alarm has a fault which makes it get hot and injure the user.Our daughter was in bed barely for an hour before the accident happened.She had a clothing between her and the alarm, but it was not enough to protect her completely.She was not burnt but the large heat from the alarm has caused big red marks and patches on her neck.
