JOY-ANNA’S PAIN
Before explaining what happened, Joy-Anna admitted that she was contemplating sharing the story, but confirmed that her family was safe.
She began the story by explaining that she was feeding Gunner part of her dinner when the accident happened.
Joy-Anna allowed Gunner to bite and chew on a piece of ham, but accidentally took too much and began to choke.
“I was so tired physically that emotionally I was just done. I was crying at this point and [I was] hitting him on the back,” she explained.
She went on to say that if she is ever in a stressful situation she knows exactly what to do, but when she is with Austin she admitted that she “doesn’t have to be as strong.”
Austin is an EMT and is trained for medical issues that may arise.
“I just handed Gunner to Austin and I started crying.
“All those what-ifs come to your mind right away. [Gunner] threw up multiple times [and] still hadn’t thrown up the ham and was gagging and was not breathing for 20 seconds.
“After that, he was able to take some shallow breaths but was still struggling and was lethargic.

“We decided to get in the car and head to the hospital.”
‘CRYING OUT TO GOD’
On their way to the ER, Joy and Austin were contemplating letting Gunner sleep thinking it would reset his body.
Joy-Anna kept a close eye on his one-year-old and timed his breaths.
“There were a couple points on the drive that he stopped breathing and I was just crying out to God like ‘Please save him’ and I’ve never been to a point where I thought I was going to lose one of my kids.
“It was just like that thought of like he is going to die came to my mind and it was terrifying.”
In the video, Joy-Anna had tears running down her face as she continued her scary story.
Once Gunner began breathing again, the terrified parents felt a bit of relief.
At the hospital, nurses explained that his breathing was better and his levels looked good, but they still wanted to do an X-ray to be safe.
I was just crying out to God like ‘Please save him’ and I’ve never been to a point where I thought I was going to lose one of my kids.

Thankfully, Joy-Anna explained that while doing the X-rays, Gunner began acting like himself by smiling and laughing.
“I was just so thankful that God protected him and we made it to the hospital and that whatever was in his throat wasn’t bothering him anymore.”
Joy-Anna confirmed that Gunner is doing okay and is back to his normal self.
“It was so crazy and a roller coaster of emotions that day.
“After something like that, I feel like you just really [need to] hug your babies a little bit tighter.”
