I was trying to decide if I was going to post something about this or not but I have decided to. A few weeks ago we were in Bear Lake, it was Sunday morning on Labor Day weekend. I had just gotten Drake out of the tub and I was trying to get him dressed. He saw the chewy granola bars sitting next to our bed and wanted one so I opened one up and gave him a bite. As usual he took a very large bite, I tried to stick my finger in his mouth to try and take some out. He got upset and started to cry. The granola bar got sucked down his throat and he started to choke. He was somewhat still coughing so I thought he was going to be okay but he wasn't. I ran him down stairs woke Josh up on the couch screaming that Drake was choking. Josh stood straight up and grabbed him and started to hit him on the back. At this time he was still kind of making coughing sounds but then I looked at his face at it was completely blue. Right then I started to panic! I knew that I needed to call 911. While I was on the phone with 911, my sweet and amazing uncle Brad also took control and told Josh to get in the car and he would drive them to the emergency clinic which was just a few blocks away. I also jumped in the car with them while I was on the phone with 911. In the mean time he was telling me what to do with Drake. On the way to the clinic Drake's color started to come back but he was still really limp and having a hard time breathing. We finally made it to the clinic and it was closed. The guy on the 911 call had already sent paramedics but it seemed like forever before they finally showed up. About 10 seconds before they showed up Drake had some really good coughs and a few good burps and a huge smile on his face. The second I knew he was okay I just started to bawl my eyes out. This was by far the scariest experience I have ever had. It all happened so fast but I have never felt like that in my entire life! The paramedics put Drake in the ambulance just to make sure his lungs and everything were clear. He was just fine so we made our way back to the cabin. I am just so grateful that everything turned out the way it did. We were truly blessed that day and I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father for that. To all of you moms or grandmas out there please take the time to learn what to do in emergency situations and play it out in your head what you will do if anything happens. I have learned things here and there but when it actually came to a real life situation I really did panic. Call 911 as soon as you can because it seems like forever for them to get there and in the mean time do what you can do to help. I am so lucky to have such and amazing husband. Josh stayed so calm and did everything that the paramedics said he should do. We are so grateful for our baby boy and we love him so much! This is a picture I took of him about a half an hour after it all happened. I couldn't look at him that entire day without tears coming to my eyes! Please be careful everyone!
