Can You Say "Heart Attack"!?!

At about 5:15 tonight, I'm innocently checking my messages on voice mail and I hear a message from the Utah Council of the Boy Scouts. I could only understand a part of the message and I got this scared feeling. Our son Jake is up working at a scout camp this summer. The guy from the council said that everyone was safe and doing well. I didn't understand why he was calling. I couldn't hear half the message and I didn't know what had happened. He just said that everyone was well and the channel 5 and 2 news had been up there.
I'm thinking, "For what!?!"
I couldn't understand the message!
I was seriously getting worried!!!
So we looked online and we find this!
JAKE IS AT THIS CAMP!!!
Lee thinks that Colton, the kid that got bit, shares a tent with Jake!
Oh my gosh! I'm totally freaking out inside (I try not to panic usually)!
I give Lee the phone number of the guy who called us. He explained what happened and that he had just visited the scouts today and everyone is doing well and the boys are still excited to be there. (Excited? What are they crazy!?!) He assured us that the Department of Wildlife Services will be patrolling the area and that the boys are completely safe. I'm still freaking out inside! Please say an extra prayer that my Jake will be safe!!!
This is just the kind of thing that reminds me why I don't like scouts! I'll be glad when he's home and I can talk to him. I'm sure Jake will have quite the story to tell on Saturday!
