Welcome!

~Our little miracle~

So I guess that the last email was written a little too soon. Landon had another breathing episode today. We went out to get dinner and on the way he threw up. We didn't have the aspirator with us so we could not suction out his throat. There was an MA (military police officer) there and we asked him to call for an ambulance, and told him that our baby was not breathing. We began mouth to mouth and shortly after a corpsman came by and helped us. Many people surrounded us, and were praying for the baby... and freaking out a little bit. Since today was open base day the roads were blocked off and the streets were filled with people, it took awhile for the ambulance to arrive. But when they did they started using a vacuum suction (very powerful) to clear out his airway, and gave him oxygen. They got Landon in the ambulance and off to the ER. We followed in a police vehicle. Since the roads were still partially blocked the police vehicle we were in went over the curbs, it was nice how fast they got us there. By time we were there Landon was doing much better and he was crying. We stayed there while they continued to suction out his airway and give him oxygen. When we left the ER one of the lady's that was watching as Landon was getting CPR came by to see how he was, she was crying and telling us how much she prayed for him. Also outside the ER was the Command Master Chief of the base, and he wanted to see if he could have the MAs come over and get a statement from us on everything that happened. We walked him home in only his diaper since he had throw up all over his clothes. A 1/2 hour later the MAs came to our house and we gave them our written statements. We are thankful for how quick and efficient the ambulance corpsmen, the corpsmen that stopped to help, and MAs are here on base, without them Landon probably would not have made it.
