Toddler 911 Call: 'Momma Owie'

There's a 2-year-old hero in Oak Harbor, Wash.

When Erika Miller collapsed in her home Tuesday, her toddler Alana picked the phone and dialed 911.

And she knew just enough words to get her mom some help. The tape of Alana's 911 call reveals the resourceful little girl's plea for help:

Operator: 911, where is your emergency?
Alana: Momma owie.
Operator: Momma owie?
Alana: Momma owie.
Operator: Is momma there?
Alana: Momma owie.

The operator quickly traced the call to the Millers' home.

"I was shocked that my 2-year-old had the ability and the knowledge to call 911 and get the help here," Miller said.

Miller and Alana were playing in their home when suddenly Miller was hit with a painful migraine — it was so powerful that it made her pass out.

That's when Alana picked up the phone and did what most 2-year-olds wouldn't be able to do — she dialed 911.

"I have actually shown her, a few months ago, 'This is what you do if there's a big owie,' and showed her what buttons to push," Miller said. "I am so proud of her."
