To the Editor:
After what would normally be a typical day for me and my two girls (ages 7 and 11), I’m just now coming to grips with what could have been a mother’s worst nightmare, as the ocean’s current took hold of both my girls.
Local residents (I think), a mom and her 15-year-old son from Surf City, quickly responded, assisting my oldest daughter in rescuing both girls. I cannot be more proud of my oldest, as she would not let go of her younger sister even though she felt as though she was drowning her.
