MG and Swimming

It can be very dangerous to swim with MG. If you're legs float up you can't get them back down to stand. You need to grab top of wall crawl along to steps and work you way out of pool.

You just can't stand so if in lake or ocean you have a very dangerous situation. I found out the hard way in a pool.
Guess what no one will believe. Remember to be careful!
