Charles R. Stevens Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Over the MLK holiday weekend wile Sandy and I were in the valley (Phoenix metro) for a friends retirement party (30 years as an army nurse, full bird colonel) friends of ours lost their 11 month old boy to aspirating a small pebble. Please put Johnny and Jessica Gooden and their daughter Serria on your lists. Knees bent, anvil rung. Quote

Chris C Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 INDEED! Will do. How sad. No parent should EVER have to endure the pain of burying their child! EVER! Quote
Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Ringing the anvil in the garden to ask for comfort for the parents and family. My brother lost his first born son to a heart defect, at 10 months old in '79 and it still is a sad time to think about. Quote
CrazyGoatLady Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I'm so sorry to hear this. I can empathize and I will be praying for this family. Quote
Daswulf Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 So very sad. They are on the prayer list. Quote
Anachronist58 Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 That child will be loved Forever. So very sorry. Robert and Sheila Taylor Quote
SLAG Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Charles, Ghastly news that. Marg & I send our condolences to the family, you and sandy, and all others affected by this tragic event. SLAG. Quote
Charles R. Stevens Posted January 29, 2020 Author Posted January 29, 2020 Sadly Johnny lost his first child 16 years ago to SIDS. Needles to say he is in rough shape. Quote
Frosty Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I'm at a loss for words, I can't think of worse times for a parent. Prayers for comfort for Johnny, Mom and all. The morning news yesterday had a piece about a viral Youtube video about clearing a choking baby's airway. There was an interview with a new mother who'd saved her baby after seeing it. I hope this isn't insensitive but the link to the YOutube video follows. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePodw7L_mFM&feature=emb_logo Frosty The Lucky. Quote
SLAG Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 Jer, Thank you for the video. Very informative. The most common things children choke on are small carrots and small hot dog pieces. I mention this because parents should be aware of the perils of these foods. Has any one of the membership noticed that ball-point pen caps, now, have a channel in them? It is to allow a child to continue breathing when they get the caps into their airways. I had not noticed that and had to, recently, read about it on the net. I think that this improvement is a recent development, but I am not sure. SLAG. Quote
