A heartbreaking tragedy took place when a 3-year-old boy named Josiah Toleafoa was killed on the day he was supposed to celebrate his third birthday.
The sweet boy and his family were at the parking lot of Play City, an indoor venue for kids’ parties, when a car hit Josiah.
Witnesses of the tragedy said that his devastated mother screamed and cried hysterically as paramedics were trying to save his life. Unfortunately, Josiah didn’t make it. He died at the Rady Children’s Hospital.
This family’s lives turned upside down. What was supposed to be a day of joy turned into the worst experience of their lives. Their happiness was replaced with grief and sorrow and their world shattered into a million pieces.
Reportedly, the 36-year-old driver who killed Josiah and whose identity hasn’t been confirmed wasn’t under influence of drugs or alcohol. He stayed at the scene and cooperated with the authorities and reasons behind the loss of control haven’t been confirmed.
Members of the family started a GoFundMe to help Josiah’s mom and dad with the funeral expenses.
“JOSIAH brought the family together- his incredible SMILE, LOVING HEART simply brought JOY to any room. There was no time to see him do amazing things. I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD,” the boy’s aunt, Tatiana Toleafoa wrote.
“We’re doing this gofundme to help with my sweet nephew’s funeral expenses and services for the little angel that touched so many lives in so many different ways before he was called to Heaven. Any amount would help, anything at all. We are so thankful to have loving family and friends to be with us and love us through this horrible tragedy and want to be able to put him to rest to say goodbye and never forget the little boy who loved with a tremendous heart,” the page stated.
The owner of Play City donated $2,000 to the Josiah’s family and that the landlord matched his donation as well.
Currently, no arrests have been made.
We are so very sorry for this family’s heartbreak. There is no greater loss than that of losing a child.
Rest in peace, Josiah.
What happened to the girl who took first place in nearly 300 beauty pageants? She is now 17 years old.
Everyone in the world adored this young girl’s attractiveness. Few people are aware that another life was concealed beneath this enormous achievement, though. This woman’s attractiveness has fallen prey to parental ego. She gave the child’s mind and health in exchange for millions of money.
Eden was raised as both a source of mother affection and a way to increase his fortune. Everyone noted the baby’s remarkable beauty when she was just four months old. The mother made it her mission to make her child renowned around the world, and she made every effort to carry out her vision.
The little child made her debut appearance on a TV program shortly after turning one. Her beauty absolutely awed every TV watcher. It was immediately apparent that the mother had gone to considerable lengths to construct a persona for her child. He brought his daughter to the solarium where she experimented on clothing, hair, and makeup. In order to give the spectator the impression of a living doll, this was done. Her mother’s wish for her to secure a lucrative deal started to come true as soon as she made her debut on television.
Everyone loved her, and it’s astonishing that despite her youth, she handled all the pressures of public life. Nobody at the time could have imagined how challenging it was for her.
At the height of the girl’s fame, many cautioned the mother that the baby’s health would be harmed by the girl’s regular use of the solarium and her weight in cosmetics. The woman, however, would not listen.
Eden had to sleep occasionally since he was always going to auditions and performing in performances. Energy drinks and lots of coffee are helpful under these circumstances. By the way, mothers whose kids competed in beauty pageants favored these drinks. They were willing to make any sacrifice.
Our protagonist definitively stopped taking part in auditions and performances when she was six years old. The mom was obliged to accept her daughter’s decision after a brief argument between mother and daughter. After then, they periodically made public appearances but lost their prior level of fame. A book on the subject was written by a woman, and it garnered mixed reviews.
He charged the mother of the kid with ruining her daughter’s childhood and compromising her health. The author claims to have witnessed the mother’s repeated cruelty and occasionally unpleasant behavior toward the girl.
The girl was reportedly always on a diet, according to the author. The girl’s health suffered as a result, but the mother showed little concern.
Eden has reached the age of 17. She once experienced childhood as an ordinary child, free from a barrage of photographs and contests. She no longer has aspirations of competing in beauty pageants, although she still enjoys posing for photos occasionally.
Eden Wood excelled in her academics, enjoyed taking part in school-sponsored amateur productions, and is a talented singer and drummer. Eden’s participation in the teen television series was also made public.
Eden Wood was able to forget the difficulties she had as a youngster. She went back to his specialty as an adolescent.
