Information on drowning that everyone should know
Did you know that drowning doesn’t look like drowning?
You know the typical frantic splashing, thrashing, and screaming for help that you see in the movies? That’s not what drowning actually looks like. In actuality, someone can drown right in front of you, while you are looking at them, and you could have no idea. I came across this article (linked above), and I hope that every one of you who are reading this blog right now take the time to read it.
It could save someone’s life.

Wow, this has been such a long, stressful week. Nathan got really, really sick on Monday with a high fever that stayed between 104 and 105.3 degrees. I took him to the doctor who said he had a nasty virus and a respiratory infection. He tested negative for strep and the flu. I had never More >

My thoughts and prayers go out to the families and loved-ones of the thirty troops killed in Afghanistan when their chopper was shot down. The video near the bottom of the page is especially touching.
