Mom suffers horrific injuries while shielding her baby during freak hailstorm



An Australian woman is being heralded online as the world's toughest mom over the horrific injuries she sustained while shielding her baby when they became trapped during a freak hailstorm.

Fiona Simpson, 23, was driving in southern Queensland with her 78-year-old grandmother and 4-month-old daughter, Clara, on Thursday when the weather suddenly took a turn for the worse, the Australian Broadcasting Company (ABC) reports.

Simpson told the outlet that she quickly pulled her vehicle to the side of the road to wait out the storm — but that it quickly became apparent that the threat was still imminent.

"I wasn't driving very fast because I couldn't see very well," Simpson said. "I couldn't see in front of me, I couldn't even see the line on the road."

Simpson said she heard a loud bang and then felt water start pouring into her vehicle. After realizing the rear window where her daughter was sitting had been shattered, the quick-acting mom jumped into the backseat and used herself as a human shield to protect the infant.

Eventually, the tennis-ball sized hail smashed another of the vehicle's windows, and though Simpson says she attempted to shield both her grandmother and her infant, both women ended up sustaining severe injuries from the massive ice chunks.

After the storm cell passed, Simpson drove the damaged vehicle to a nearby home, where residents quickly called for paramedics.

Simpson and her daughter were treated for their injuries and released from Kingaroy Hospital in Queensland, Australia, on Thursday.
