My heart is breaking for the mama guilt you must be feeling. Hopefully it's all feeling a bit better today.
I almost drowned when I was 10. I knew how to swim, but I had a waist flotation ring on and jumped in the pool and ended up flipping to where my head was under the water and my legs were floating. I got out of the ring, but was so confused where the top was and panicked. A teen girl there saved me...but I don't think I've ever seen my mom so scared.

Good for you for being proactive and starting the swim lessons now!
