No Neurodivergent Pool Guy

During the many years that my wife and I have been together, I have shared “rumors” of how I used to go into pools. I jokingly call them “rumors” because she has hardly ever seen me in one. To provide some context, I’m not a strong swimmer and, for some reason, I can’t go underwater without water entering my nose and bleeding. During my son’s short life, I don’t think that he has hardly seen me in a pool, either.
