Initial data
Jennifer Grosbeck and her daughter Lily left the house of Jenny's parents on Friday, March 6, at about 10 pm. She was traveling from Salem, Utah, where her parents lived, to Springfield. Jenny's father strapped little Lily in the car seat and sent them on their way. He did not know that he would never see his daughter alive again.
Jenny lost control of the car and fell into the icy Spanish Fork River, located in Utah. The fisherman found the car around noon the next day. It was about 14 hours after Jenny left her parents' house. The fisherman turned to the authorities for help.
When the first rescuers arrived, they saw no signs of life. When the call came on the radio, they reported that a car might have been abandoned in the river. When they approached the wreckage, they saw that there was someone inside.
Later they said that they did not plan to turn the car over that day, but when they rushed to the river, they heard a voice begging for help. Instantly they ran to the car. Overwhelmed with adrenaline and worried about the people inside, rescuers turned over the truck and found two people.
One of the first arrivals reported hearing a voice and, in his opinion, one of the others answered:
"We're struggling to get inside."
When the truck overturned, they saw that a mother and her little girl were in it. The mother was clearly dead, and they were concerned that the girl was also missing.
Body cameras captured the desperate rescue of baby Lily from the car seat in which she was hanging upside down after the accident.
Firefighters who jumped into the river to save the girl were treated for hypothermia at a nearby hospital. Many of the rescuers told about that night, and they swear that they heard a voice calling for help. Later they found out that the mother had died in a fall. There was no way she could be a voice calling for help. Lily was very small and unconscious when she was rescued from the icy water. Even knowing that Jenny couldn't call for help, they support what they heard.
Later, the rescuers were awarded for their role in saving Lily's life.
The family is not entirely shocked that Jenny seems to have stayed with her daughter until help arrived. They knew Jenny as a loving and devoted mother who would do anything for her little girl. Lily spent about a week in the intensive care unit while recovering. Doctors worried about brain damage as the girl spent almost 14 hours hanging upside down in her car seat in a cold SUV. In the following days and weeks, she only got stronger and fully recovered. She sings and kisses her grandfather.
Although Lily will surely have questions when she grows up, she will not doubt one thing - her mother's love. This love was so deep that it overcame the veil between life and death to make sure that her beloved child had a chance at life.
