I've only felt a feeling close to that once before when he was 7 in Nassua, we lost sight of him for about 2 mins. because he ran off in the market downtown. This was 10 times worse, it took us about 6 frantic minutes to get to him. 911 was called and the police were there a couple of mins. before us. When we got to him, he was conscious, alert and the wound was controlled. We could tell he was going to be OK and was stable.

In those 6 minutes I thought we were going to lose him. I'm very good under pressure, but it took me about 15-20 minutes to stop my hands from shaking. I hope and pray I never have that feeling again.

It turns out my knucklehead 17 yr. old and a friend were at the friend's house messing around with a knife and he wound up with a small stab wound in his upper left chest. By the grace of God the knife only went in less than an inch and didn't penetrate his chest cavity. When we were at the hospital the surgeon said he didn't need an operation, however I did ask if they could perform a brain transplant and get one that worked.

Scary shit! So glad he is ok SS33!
