A little scare

[miezzi]

We are laying in bed and I have a laptop, but the battery is getting low so I had to plug it in. In order for it to reach the bed I have the battery pack on top of Luig's cage. Luig was chewing a greenie and must have been thirsty. He jumps down (which I can't stand cuz I feel its too high, but he is fearless) but he jumps and catches himself on the cord with his neck. He couldn't get down and starts gagging. I jumped and got him off but he was gasping for air. It took a couple of forced breaths for him to catch his breath. At the same time though I thought he may have had his greenie in his mouth and was choking on that, but it wasn't in his mouth, it was still on the bed thank goodness!!! I think it scared him more than anything. I put him back up with us and he was on Ray for a few mins, then he crawled up on my chest while I am typing this. My poor baby!!! He seems ok though just scared!!

so please NO CORDS NEAR THE BED!!!!!!!!!

Whew! I'm so glad he is okay! That does sound like quite the scare - has your heart started beating again yet?

OMW Are you okay yet? Running around taping all the cords down yet?

My son gave Sydnee a treat and she started gasping and I thought she was choking to death, and he is a lifeguard with all the training and I was holding Sydnee screaming at him to give her mouth to mouth, cpr something. Of course by this time Sydnee was okay air just went down the wrong pipe but I was so upset I was going on and on and on. Then Sydnee finally barked and my son was shaking me telling me to chill.

Till this moment I thought was becoming one of those neurotic moms, its good to know I am not alone. My Mom said I was like that with my son also. Isn't it strange I thought I was so even keeled and able to handle anything.
