I still get a sick feeling thinking about the “what ifs” regarding my daughter when she choked on some food. It’s so scary to think about because not only were we in the same room as her, we were sitting at the dining room table eating dinner together. My husband and I were having a conversation and we didn’t notice right away! That’s how quiet it is.

I’m so glad you were there when your son was choking and that he is okay!

I worked in the O.R. of a children’s hospital for 8 years. We had several children over the years as patients who were brain dead from choking on grapes and hot dogs. Two deadly foods for kids. Perfect size for blocking the trachea.

Becky, that was totally a God thing. Like you said, you have done it many other times (and so have .I) May you be blessed with His peace that passes all understanding tonight.

Thank you for sharing your story. We had a similar scare about six years ago with my older daughter. She was learning to swim at home but not taking to the lessons well, so my mom got her a swim belt to help give her more confidence. She took it off to go inside and when she came back forgot to put it back on. No one heard her come outside, enter the pool, or slip under the water at the incline. She was under water looking up at me, begging me to help her. I was shocked and literally, couldn’t move my feet. It was like I was stuck in concrete! My mom got to her in time and we immediately signed up for swimming lessons at the local college. But no one tells you how silent these things really are – they aren’t like the movies!! So glad your family is safe and well tonight. Hug them closer, cherish them longer. God bless you!!

Hugs momma!! Seriously BIG hugs! And a double high five for the hubby. These moments are so terrifying, and we all beat ourselves up over them! But the truth is, you are given the grace you need to know this wasn’t your fault and that you’re an amazing mom even in the moments you have walked away while they snack. I know, if you’re like myself your probably “thinking” you shouldn’t blame yourself, but in your heart you do. Ick… stop that! I’m here to say… you’re an amazing mom, you deserve the grace, and these extra hugs! I’ll be saying an extra prayer for you and yours tonight, and tomorrow I’ll be cutting grapes in halfs. Haha xo!
