Did you know there are six types of drowning?
Wet, dry, silent, active, passive and secondary.
Everyone will be familiar with all except one. This happens to be the most dangerous one of them all.
Why? Because "secondary drowning" doesn't happen underwater.
You have a near-drowning experience, but you manage to recover and crawl out of the water looking and feeling completely fine.
Everything's okay, right? Because you survived? No.
This false sense of security is brutal, utterly unfair. That small amount of water you inhaled during your drowning episode begins to murder you from the inside. The symptoms you start to receive are probably just passed of as sickness. You're drowning inside, and you didn't even know.
You're slowly dying, and you don't realise until it's too late.
