PLEASE READ IMMEDIATLY
YESTERDAY WAS CRAZY FOR MY FAMILY. WE COULD HAVE DIED.
GABE AND I WERE TRYING TO MAKE SOME CHICKEN SALAD LAST NIGHT, AND HE MUST OR I MUST HAVE BUMPED A BURNER ON THE STOVE. BECAUSE WHEN I WOKE UP THE NEXT DAY AT 11:30...THERE WAS A HORRIBLE GAS SMELL ALL OVER MY APARTMENT, FOYER, AND INSIDE THE GARAGE-WHICH IS RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO THE APARTMENT.
ANYWAYS, I WENT INTO THE KITCHEN AND LOOKED AT THE STOVE AND THE BURNER WAS ON HIGH, NO FLAME..SO IT WAS JUST GAS LEAKING OUT. I SHUT THE BURNER OFF. OPENED THE WINDOWS, TURNED ON THE BATHROOM VENT, OPENED THE DOOR. TURNED ON THE HUMIDIFIER, TURNED THE HEAT OFF. I RAN TO THE BEDROOM, AND WOKE UP ABRAM. HE THREW UP AS SOON AS I WOKE HIM UP, AND GOT SOOO FUSSY. HIS EYES WERE ALL RED AND IRRITATED AND HE HAD TEARS.
I MYSELF WAS HAVING A HORRIBLE TIME FOCUSING AND HAD A HEADACHE, MY EYES WERE BURNING.
I GOT HIM DRESSED HIS BAG READY, I GOT DRESSED, AND WE LEFT IMMEDIATLY. WE COULDNT BE IN THE HOUSE ANY LONGER. I DONT THINK I REALLY REALIZED WHAT WAS GOING ON, OR WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND HOW SERIOUS IT WAS. I CALLED GABES MOM, AND SHE LOST IT. SHE WAS SO UPSET, AND I WAS TOO. UNDERSTANDABLY.
I CALLED MY DAD, SINCE HE IS A DOCTOR, AND HE SAID TO TAKE ABRAM TO THE HOSPITAL. SO I TOOK HIM TO HIS DOCTOR, AND THE DOCTOR SAID ABRAM WAS ACTING A BIT DROWSY, SO HE WANTED TO GET A CARBON MONOXIDE LEVEL TAKEN. HE SAID THAT WE NEEDED TO HAVE A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OUR APARTMENT. THAT SINCE WE LIVE IN ONE SO SMALL, WE REALLY, WERE MIRACLES, BECAUSE WE SHOULDNT HAVE WOKEN UP.
ABRAM'S TEST RESULTS CAME BACK ALRIGHT, AND HE WAS FINE. BUT ME AND GABE WERE GOING TO FEEL SICK FOR AWHILE, PROLLY THE NEXT DAY OR TWO.
THE DOCTOR SAID TO SLEEP SOMEWHERE ELSE AND TO GET THE APARTMENT CLEARED OUT, THE DETECTORS INSTALLED AND TESTED, AND TO GO BACK IN WHEN THE SMELL WAS GONE.
ALL THE FOOD ON THE COUNTER WAS CONTAMINATED AND THE CLOTHES HAD TO BE WASHED THAT WERE SITTING IN THE LIVING ROOM. THANK GOD I HAD CLOSED THE DOOR TO OUR BEDROOM THE NIGHT BEFORE, IT HELPED KEEP ALOT OF THE FUMES TO A MINIMUM.
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THANKS TO GOD, WE ARE ALIVE.
AND PLEASE REMEMBER TO GET A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR, A FIRE ALARM, AND HAVE THEM TESTED.
PLEASE ALSO REMEMBER TO CHECK YOUR STOVES BEFORE YOU GO TO BED.
CARBON MONOXIDE IS ODORLESS, AND THE GAS CAUSES THE CARBON MONOXIDE. CARBON MONOXIDE WHEN YOU GET TOO MUCH INSIDE YOUR BODY STARTS TO MAKE YOU DROWSY, RESPONSIVELESS AND YOU FALL ASLEEP, CAUSING THE OXYGEN IN YOUR BODY TO GO DOWN, AND YOU MAY NOT WAKE UP FROM IT. IT IS VERY SERIOUS.
PASS THIS ON TO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
