It must have scared the daylights out of the family. Now I wish I had apologized when I saw the parent the next time. :(@muffinsmuffins: That is absolutely the worst nightmare! Did it get on the news? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588990 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 10:43:08 +0000 sorrycharlie 2588990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Terrifying! That is my worst fear. I'm so glad all turned out ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588979 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 10:30:08 +0000 808love 2588979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you so much. Surprisingly, though totally freaking out, I was able to keep myself calm. I felt like I had laser focus and this wall went around my heart so I wouldn't break down. DH was unreachable. My grandma had sounded so panicked. When I called my mom to check on whether she knew if my grandma had been acting strange lately, my mom sounded even more panicked. She kept saying JUst Drive! and sounded really scared. I just never know with old age and I wanted to have as much information as possible. My grandma had been on a trip for a few weeks and I hadn't seen her since she got back. I thought about calling the police, just in case to have them on standby and was praying. Just then I got the call she was safe. Ahhhhh!!!! DH found out about it all after the fact.<br /> When I got home, I kept apologizing to my grandma because it was really hard to see where Lo had hidden and my grandma was all sweaty looking for her. Whew!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588837 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 08:21:26 +0000 snowjewelz 2588837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That must have been terrifying! So happy for the "good" outcome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588801 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 07:31:22 +0000 muffinsmuffins 2588801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank goodness! Not me but a good friends son wandered out of the grandparents yard when he was 3 a couple years ago. My friend was 2-3 hours drive away at an event when they got the call. Police and volunteers scoured the area which was near water and forest. His uncle found him somehow hours later in the pitch dark clinging to a tree, soaking wet and covered in bug bites. He was ok in the end thankfully. It gives me chills to think of what could have happened. My friend told me on the long drive back, her and her husband were honestly thinking of his funeral they were so distraught. Every parents worst nightmare! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588798 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 07:27:06 +0000 My Only Sunshine 2588798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: so scary!! My daughter's daycare called a couple weeks ago at like 9 am to ask if she was coming in that day. I thought my husband had dropped her off at 7:30. I was in an instant cold sweat. I was sure it was like those news stories where a parent accidentally leaves a toddler in the car all day after forgetting to drop them off at daycare. The director ran to the classroom when I told her I thought my daughter was there, and sure enough she was sitting at a table coloring. She had apparently been in the bathroom when someone came around to do head count. Worst 30 seconds of my life.</p> <p>For a few reasons (but that incident being one of the final straws) we're switching her childcare this fall. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588790 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 07:15:22 +0000 FaithFertility 2588790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: ohhhh my word, my heart is in my feet for you, can't imagine that fear!</p> <p>I am so glad it was all OK!</p> <p>This happened with my little sister! She fell asleep in Ber toy box I think it was :( I remember my mom being frantic and calling 911 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588788 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 07:09:51 +0000 Mamaof2 2588788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG how terrifying!!! So glad she was safe! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588756 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 02:45:16 +0000 mrbee 2588756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: oh my goodness, i am so, so relieved for you and your family!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588751 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 01:08:53 +0000 birdofafeather 2588751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh my gosh. I would be terrified. Glad she was safe and sound the whole time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-experience-your-worst-fear-and-it-turned-out-happily-ever-after#post-2588748 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 00:55:20 +0000 808love 2588748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today I got a call that my daughter was missing. LO's great grandma has been watching her at our house lately. She is 94, lives alone, catches the bus, cognition is still sharp and very strong willed and independent. So I am teaching a summer course and my Grandma rings and says LO is missing. She was in the back room and now she's not. She looked everywhere and even called to LO telling her that I was on the phone. No answer!! Just disappeared with no trace. I told her to KEEP LOOKING and hung up.</p> <p>Thinking of all the million things that could have happen, I grabbed my purse as I flew out of the room and told my colleagues what happened. </p> <p>Over thirty minutes later I neared the exit to my neighborhood and the phone rang. Lo had fallen asleep while hiding in the blanket. It really was super hard to see her as our duvet is very textured. It looked totally flat. She was super sweaty, still sleeping when I came home but fine. I was so relieved. Everything else in life seems like a piece of cake now that I lived through my scariest fear. </p>
