Who loves you baby?

SBS - what is it?

Shaken Baby Syndrome - which can result in death or serious injury to infants, including brain and spinal injuries - can be prevented.

It's hard to talk about things like this , especially since 50% of the cases result from the actions of family members. Sometimes it's a babysitter. But prevention can be addressed through education. These injuries, sadly, do not have to happen.

Who loves you baby? We all do.
