I had the most scariest moment in my life yesterday morning.  My wife has had a stomach bug since Sunday.  She could not keep anything down.  We went to sleep and woke up Monday morning.  She got in the shower and about 5 minutes later I hear her call me.  I get in there just in time for my wife to collapse.  She is unresponsive and starts to shake.  I get to the phone and call 911.  For about 30-45 seconds (seemed like a lifetime) she was limp in my arms, but was still breathing very slowly.  She finally started to come to a little bit. I start shoving fluids down her and she comes to a bit more.  I am freaking out.  Paramedics finally get there with her concious and slowly getting better. 

She finally becomes somewhat stable, but her heart is racing like crazy.  We get to the ER and her heart rate does not come down and they do some blood work.  Well they say her clotting factors are high and they need to do a CT to rule out a blood clot in her lung.  Well the CT comes back as somewhat inconclusive, but showed something that they need to investigate further.  At this point, I just do not know what to think.  My heart is just sinking with all the thoughts that are running through my mind.  So they do a more invasive test to double check.  At this time I have just about lost it.  Because the doctor is telling me that this is serious stuff and could kill her if we don't rule out a pulmanary embolism in her lung and treat it if she does indeed have a PE.  That test comes back clean. 

So the long day at the hospital was because of dehydration.  I was finally relieved.

The moral of this story is to tell you to hug your loved ones and take nothing for granted.   When my wife went limp in my arms I just can not explain the pain, or the emotions that were going through my head.  Everything seems to fine now and she is doing much better. 

But please hug your kids and your spouse and tell them you love them.  For a moment yesterday, I thought I was going to lose my wife.  It was the most scariest event in my life to date.  Take nothing fore granted and don't let little things get in the way of you and the ones you love.  This event has opened my eyes quite a bit as to how precious life is and how much my wife means to me.

glad everything ended up being okay, but I hear what you are saying.  We watched my daughter waste away when she was an infant.  Almost died, should have died.  Very helpless feeling.

I know right where you are coming from but mine is almost a daily thing. Diabetes is a dibilitating desease and to come home to find her passed out on the floor and seizeing is sometimes overwhelming but we do for the ones we love. I hope all is well and my God bless you. Remeber to hug the ones you love before that thing happens and you dont get the chance.

Glad everything turned out ok John. I'd rather see you on the water than in the ER any day, so next time lets just go diving. Seriously though, glad she's ok. Call me if you need anything.

Pleased to hear that the Mrs. is recovering and hopefully without any problems. As far as huging and telling your loved ones you love them.....  Well for me that comes EVERY morning when the second one is to get up and the last to come to bed . You never know from one minute to the next as you have shown here.

Rich,

Seeing a familiar face there yesterday did help calm my nervs.  Thanks.  But I agree, I would rather meet up with you on the water vs. the ER.
