Laurie997 Posted September 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I’m sailing on this ship right now and heard that a 2 year old fell off a balcony. Not sure but I’m praying for the family. Was curious to know has anyone else hear this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrljel Posted September 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 14, 2022 My sister is sailing right now on that ship and she was wondering why you were still in port. I pray for the family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrljel Posted September 14, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 14, 2022 My sister is going up top to check out what happened. They are portside balcony but because the ship is backed in they are on the opposite side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zetaphy Posted September 14, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I cruise quite a bit and never been on a ship that’s turned around like this. My balcony faces the dock and after waiting for an ambulance (per captain), a black SUV pulled up on the dock. Maybe they called a transport company instead after delays? Woman carrying a baby walked off with a few other passengers and promptly left. Second van followed with luggage, stroller, etc. Hope all is well for family and child and this is no more than extra caution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted September 14, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 14, 2022 As anyone who has cruised knows, it's very, very difficult to fall off a balcony for an adult, none the less a two year old. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrljel Posted September 14, 2022 #8 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Ok, I found out what happened. A child had a seizure and the mother fainted. The ship is still in port. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poocher Posted September 14, 2022 #9 Share Posted September 14, 2022 As the mother of an epileptic, i can imagine the mom’s stress. Watching your child seize is a nightmare, especially when the child is so young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prayers for that family! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzfan10 Posted September 21, 2022 #14 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I was on the Sept 10th sailing and I was told by a fellow passenger on board that the child passed away. I hope that was a rumor. I never heard the balcony fall rumor while on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
