This week Turner has been taking swim lessons!!
As part of the Joshua Collingsworth Memorial Foundation's Float 4 Life program he is learning how to float on his back at our local YMCA with the help of a wonderful swim instructor named Mary!
Below is a video of him in action. The view is terrible because I am trying to keep my distance so TW can't see me, but you can still get a good idea of what he's learning to do, float on his back & reach for the edge! This was taken today (day 3) - the first two days he screamed almost the whole time (the session lasts 10 minutes), which was very hard to watch, today was so much better!

Wow!
Scary! And exciting! It makes me want to cry, but then heave a great sigh of relief.
Steph, it's so good that you're doing this! What relief to know he's safe! Go TW, Go! (it's hard, the screaming, though... even with C at the age of 3 it is hard seeing them so "traumatized"! Better than drowning!
This is awesome!
