Last August we were on vacation at Diana’s Baths, a place famous for waterfalls.

Sitting on the rocks with my husband, I watched some parents ______ guarding their kids away from the rocks edges. I felt glad that our 8-year-old son Wyatt could ______ himself.

______, I saw Wyatt sit down between two rocks in the running water. I shouted at him to get out. He shouted back something and then he ______ over the edge.

“Somebody help my son!” I ______, over and over. But I only heard a woman scream. “That ______ just went over the waterfall!” she shouted at her husband. “We are leaving!” They walked away, not even looking back to see whether our child was OK.

By the time ______ climbed down to the rocks below, my husband had pulled Wyatt out of the water with the help of a young woman. She was ______ first aid. “I’m Lisa, a nurse. I’m not leaving you.” She looked at me ______, as if she were trying to take every bit of energy, ______ and strength(力量) in her body and pass it on to me.

Wyatt was taken to the hospital immediately. ______ we spent a sleepless night there, we were told Wyatt was going to be OK.
