I had the best day today that turned into the worst day.
TRIGGER WARNING- child death in my park - also PDQ.
- - - - - - - - - -
My day started off with breakfast out then a trip to the river with my parents before they left. We had such a great time. Then this afternoon things went south. A 13 yo boy drowned in our park. He was floating the river in a canoe, and was wearing his life jacket. The canoe overturned and the straps on his life vest got tangled on a downed tree in the river. He was under for over 30 min while family tried to get him out. Finally a horseback rider came through on a trail and had a knife where they were able to cut the strap of the vest to get him out. Our staff got there just as they were pulling him out. There is no cell service where this happened so that's why it took so long for help to arrive (someone ran 3 miles up a gravel road to find a house where someone could call for help). MH's newest LE guy (3rd day on the job) did CPR for 45 min until the ambulance got there, one of my employees did traffic control and tried to keep people out of the area that didn't need to be in there. A very tough day for many. When I talked to my employee she was crying and having a tough time. She held it together through the incident but after she broke down. I was fighting back the tears while talking to her and I wasn't even there. Our agency does provide critical incident stress management counseling so they will have someone to talk to. I gave S an extra big hug tonight.
Please keep the boys family and those involved with the recovery efforts in your thought.

wedding, it's 1 mg per pound for benadryl for dogs, right? My poor flashers is scratching himself silly. He has a vet appointment next week for yearly check up and I'm going to talk to him about the itching. Yes. And you can dose every 8 hours to keep on top of it.

Oh that's awful, lfig. I'm so sorry. I was just reading that at least 5 people died in Michigan lakes this past weekend. So scary. We usually have 1-2 drownings a year at our park. Typically it adults who either have had way too much to drink or older adults who have a heart attack while in the water and the current then sweeps them away. It's all tough to deal with and incredibly sad, but the kids are so much harder to deal with. Our best friend is a water patrolman (like highway patrol but on the water). He supervises the waterways in a good chunk of south east Missouri. They have dealt with three drownings in the last week. This one, and then the other 2 were about an hour from us. Also both kids. He deals with it a lot, so he's kinda "used " to it. But it's still hard. He has a lot of trouble sleeping, especially after the kids.
