I've heard so many stories like this that whenever I'm at a party or event where there's water and very young kids involved I can't take my eyes off the kids for more than a few seconds.

Having a kid die like that where you could have easily saved the child if you paid enough attention would be something I'd have a hard time recovering from.

I watched a rescue on the beach in Kauai a couple years ago. It was a lifeguard who spotted a couple struggling and made it out to them with a rescue board. IDK how it would have gone without a lifeguard, because I would have never been able to hear them calling for help over the sound of the surf. Sounds like everyone involved was very lucky!
