    Aww! I'm glad she's ok!! And I'm very glad you stayed calm, because when people panic, it only makes the situation way worse. But I'm very glad she's ok

    Years ago I was chewing a Twizzler when suddenly a piece lodged in my throat. My husband and son were watching TV and saw me choking but did nothing. It wasn't until I dropped to my knees on the floor and they saw my color change that they sprang into action. After I got my breath and calmed down, I yelled "What does it take to get you guys to help me?!" They said "We honestly thought you were just sort of coughing at first and then joking around!" I can tell you that, as an adult, that was one scary moment, so for a toddler it must have been doubly so. If you're not breathing, you're dying. I'm so glad that Hannah came through unscathed and you've really made me think that I need to learn CPR. (((HUGS))) to you and very gentle (((HUGS))) to Hannah.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Ooh how scary! So glad that you guys knew what to do. We haven't had that happen yet, thankfully...I think I really need to take a CPR class!

    It sounds as though mother's intuition came through and everything you have ever learned to do flashed through your mind. Thank God you knew exactly what to do. It must have scared you both to pieces.

    I would be curious if Hannah is a little leary of the goldfish now. If she connects the awful experience to those little fish.

    You're a great Mom!!

    That is sooo scary. I'm really glad she is OK, and that you were able to stay calm.

    It happened once to Lydia too when we were in Kohl's of all places. I'm thankful that that is the one and only time she has ever choked, it is just way too scary when that happens!

    give her a hug from me!

    I'm glad your little one is ok! How scary.

    Several years ago friends of mine lost their young son when he choked on a piece of hot dog. Such a tragedy!

    Thanks everyone. I think it definitely took a year or two off my life.

    Hannah seems to have forgotten all about with no ill affects lol she still grabs goldfish by the handful and I have to pry her little fingers open and empty her hand and give her just ONE. Stinker.




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.

    Glad she's okay! Andy saved me and a friend of a friend at the same party. The prime rib was sooo good that we were literally inhaling our dinners. Bad idea.
