I guess the real danger lies in cooked popsicles. I didn't grill mine.

Well, then you are safe. Just don't eat any bread or potato chips.

When I was on the way home yesterday I heard a really neat story on a local talk radio program. A new mother had left her newborn baby on her bed to go and prepare a bottle. She had only been gone for a minute when when the family dog, a golden retriever named Bullet, came into the kitchen and was carrying on something awful. She couldn't understand what was wrong with the dog, but he persisted. Finally, she followed Bullet into the bedroom to find the baby gagging and turning blue. She screamed for her husband who was in the shower. He immediately came out and performed CPR on the baby which he happened to recall from high school. They, of course called 911 and the infant was taken to the hospital where the couple was told that another 10 seconds would likely have made the difference between life and death. So Bullet saved the baby's life. The baby turned out to have pneumonia in both lungs and was hospitalized for swhile.

But here's the really neat part of the story and an explanation of why the mother sees this as a real miracle. She already considered the baby to be a miracle. Her and her husband had tried all kinds of fertility treatments in order to have a child and all had failed. Then, at age 43, she spontaneously conceived and had the baby, I forget if it was a boy or girl. Just 2 years earler Bullet had developed a tumor on his liver and the vet had recommended having him put to sleep, but instead, they had taken out a $5000 loan to pay for the surgery to remove the tumor. They now believe that it was meant to be because God knew they would face this situation and Bullet needed to be there.

Pretty cool story huh?

[ValerieUSA]

hee hee... nah, that time it wasn't about YOU, Mo. *LOL* It's always about ME

[sweetliberty]

"I sure hope that is not a dig"

LOL! You grill your popsicles? I would think that would keep the fires under control.

[Mo1]

FOFL

[ValerieUSA]

That's pretty cool except for the 43 yr old getting pregnant... that's scary. (not that I'm at risk *L*)

[Mo1]

Oh wow .. what a great story

[ValerieUSA]

post 569 is proof that it is always about me

[sweetliberty]

I think the week is catching up with me. I've slept all evening. I never do that.

When Gabriel (our number four child that mde everyone think we were crazy) was just 3, he saved his dad's life. Life is a gift, not a choice. (I didn't mean that crack about the pregnant 43 yr old - I think it's cool)

[Mo1]

LOL .. My mother was 42 when she had my youngest sister .. hehe

[ValerieUSA]

I keep forgetting the secret to happiness --- thankfulness.

[Mo1]

Sleep is good .. I am been busy writting letters all day .. this stunt the dems pulled had really upset me and I am not going to sit for it

[sweetliberty]

"he saved his dad's life."

What happened?

[sweetliberty]

"this stunt the dems pulled had really upset me and I am not going to sit for it"

I know what you mean. Just when you think they can't get any lower, they always do. They should have dug themselves all the way to hell by now.

Greg had had another really bad insulin reaction in the middle of the night. He did not think clearly and went out to the living room in his underwear, but the fire was out (we only had a woodstove for heat) and it was freezing and he was sweating (drenched) and I didn't notice he was gone from the room (he worked nights, so I was used to him not being there). For some reason Gabe (who was a sound sleeper) woke up and found him and was crying and crying and woke me up and I went out there -- thought he was dead. He was grey and stiff (posturing) and I could not open his mouth to get any sugar in.. but he had a faint pulse and the EMTs had something to get sugar into him (his blood test didn't register any bloodsugar at all) and after several hours in the ER he came back home - the doctors said another few minutes without sugar and getting warm, there wouldn't have been anything left, and I was sound asleep. Gabe was only two then... not three. We had a lot of close calls, but that one was the first big shocker.
