Boy Drowns Hours After Swimming!
I have never heard of "secondary drowning" before--have you?

Wikipedia explains it like this:
"Near drowning is the survival of a drowning event involving unconsciousness or water inhalation and can lead to serious secondary complications, including death, after the event. Cases of near drowning are often given attention by medical professionals. Secondary drowning is death due to chemical or biological changes in the lungs after a near drowning incident."
