I have just witnessed one of the scariest things that I could probably ever see in my life. I am still shaking from what just happened a few minutes ago as I type. Have you ever witnessed one of your family members dying? It happens really quickly, like a flash... just like their life must flash before their eyes. It must be a horrible feeling... that sinking deathly feeling. Gasping for air hoping that there's the slightest luck that you fill your lungs. A word for everyone that looks at this (probably no one does, but it's worth a try): Please, for the sake of your family and friends, please chew your food. It may sound funny, maybe even corny, but having just seen what I did it's not really considered a 'joke' to me. I couldn't stand looking across her distressed face while she was choking, but something could not pull me away. It could have been the feeling of needing to save her, but I was frozen, scared. I couldn't do anything, but to watch in horror as she choked on her food, breathless, fighting to keep alive. I was stunned. I was unabe to do anything. I admit, I'm a coward, but I have never seen something like that right before my eyes. Trust me, it is VERY scary.... But, she is alright and breathing properly again~ heart
I hope to God nothing like that ever happens to a family member or friend again
- Luv you all and PLEASE be careful~ heart
