Husband and Wife rediscover their Connection
All Choked Up N Nothing to Say
by forestport12
Ever since we got married, my wife could fill a book with words. I grew to loathe those inflated conversations. I was a man meant for action.
One night she got in the way of my football. She pointed to her throat and made strange gasping sounds.
No time for second thoughts. I'd seen the Heimlich maneuver enough times on television. After a couple tugs, she started talking.
"You saved my life."
I'd say, it proved true love.
Together forever.

Inspired by a true story from only a few days ago. Don't tell my wife.
