text: did somebody ever experienced drowning ? if you had, please tell me your story. odd odd question but ok....when i was 11 i was in the swimming pool and my step mom was tanning, i was playen with an inflatibale boat and thought it would be fun to flip it over and play underneath it in the 3 end. well  next think you know my feet did not touch i must of travled over to the 8 end and so i paniced and tried swimming underneath the boat to reach the service..but everytime i did the boat was to so heavy it keep on following me and i keep coming up underneath it. i tried grabing on the sides but it was to big for my hands and really slippery so i keep on sliding off. i keep on kicken and kicken to stay aflout cuz i got tired then right when i was so exsosted from swimming i went under and swollowed water. then i felt my feet touch the ground, i guess i swam so far around the pool i ended up back to square 1 and i pushed the boat up and started coughen and throwing up.
