Baby Jessica - First Responder Mental Health Coin

While brainstorming a design for a First Responder mental health coin, the circumstances surrounding the following incident popped right in my mind and we knew that it deserved a coin. As a child, I watched the made for TV movie "Everybody's Baby: The Rescue of Jessica McClure" with my sisters on a regular basis. Watching everyone come together to help in this time of crisis made me want to become a first responder myself. As I grew older and started to research that incident more, I was saddened to hear that one of the rescuers, Robert O'Donnell, took his own life several years later afters struggling with PTSD.
When I was a kid, and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me "Look for the helpers." You will always fine people that are helping." - Fred Rogers
But, sometimes the helpers need help. Talk with someone. Check in on each other. You are not alone. You are valued and wanted. Be strong.
Proceeds of this coin will be donated to help with First Responder mental health.
This is a 1.75" solid metal coin
