Johnny Jackson is a boy who has recently just drowned because he swallowed some water whilst in a swimming pool. Of course, swallowing water in a pool is pretty normal but unfortunately what happened to Johnny Jackson was that some of the water got into his lungs. When he got out of the pool he felt unwell and so laid down in hope of feeling better. It was only a while later that he developed problems with his breathing and later died in Trident Hospital.

My heart really goes out to Johnny Jackson’s family. This dry drowning certainly isn’t something I’ve ever heard of before and I can’t tell you the number of times I have swallowed water and had difficulty breathing and even been physically sick. I’m a terrible swimmer but I thought that this behaviour was perfectly normal. I think that this is a good lesson for everyone who sees someone who is having difficulty in breathing in the water because it could be that they’re suffering from dry drowning and should seek medical help.

Wow, Haden Stusak is pretty young for a hero but that is certainly what he is despite only being 6 years old. Whilst his friend Josiah Buddah was drowning in a swimming pool, Haden Stusak came to his rescue.
