Boy Dies Of Dry Drowning After Leaving Pool And Walking Home
http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/110157.php
I'd never heard of this until now, so I apologize if this is a repost. Just something to be aware of if you're around children at the pool this summer. Quote:

Yeah, seen this on the news the other day...how sad...his very first time to the pool, . His poor mom was just heartbroken in the interview i watched.
I've never even heard of such a thing. Be watchful, all of you parents. |

I agree, but what the hell do you watch for? What kid doesn't seem to be drinking in half the pool when they swim? That's just flat scary.

I'm not sure that I'm glad that I read that article. That just scares the crap out of me. Especially since my kids spent all day at the pool today.

meh. about the same odds of losing a child to dry drowning as winning the freakin Powerball.
I'm guessing more kids die every year on the drive to and from the pool. Tragic, but not exactly something that will keep me up at night.
