In the story Deep water by William O. Douglas
He was ten years old and was going to go swimming
In a Y.M.C.A. pool. And this big kid about eighteen years old
kid tossed him into the deep end of the pool. Sitting position and
swallowed some water into his way into the pool.
And he was frightened. Many times he tried to get up for some air
But the kid would keep pushing him under the water.
And mainly he panicked through out the story and nearly died
because this kid was pushing him under the water.
My story about almost drowning but it is not nearly as bad as the story Deep Water but I do remember panicking a little and starting going under the water. I was at my swimming lessons and I would go many times a week
when I would say I was about six-seven years old. There was two swimming ladies to help us out as a group. But both of them where running two groups instead of one.
Then when they where with the other group
I was swimming I was getting tired and sleepy and
I started going under the water and I panicked a little and for some reason I did not say help or anything. So luckily one of the kids on the other group said
Look!
And then one of the swimming ladies went under and got me.
And they the rest of the time they watched me.
So compared to the story it did not sound that bad but it was scary for me. And I did not throw up like in the story "Deep Water" but I was tired. And I did not nearly die. Like the person in the story nearly did.
And there was no person throwing me into the water. Like there was one in the story. But overall I'm really lucky that I did not drown that day.
And I did not nearly die. And that was my day at one of my
Swimming lessons.
