The difficulty in these stories is that if you write about everywhere you can end up writing about nowhere.

I want to help others 'think first' before diving into a pool or lake to prevent these types of life-changing accidents. I know I'm in a very fortunate minority and hope my story inspires both adults and children to be more careful.
