If you can breathe freely and easily, be thankful tonight

Just spent a couple of hours in the ER because I accidentally inhaled a magnesium supplement tablet at bedtime. Lord almighty, it was frightening to have something obstructing the airway. Now, $5000 later (as the doctor joked to me) I am fine. They gave me an inhalor (broncho dilator) and after about five minutes of that I coughed hard and out popped the pill! I was supremely happy about that!!!!!!!

Be careful, kids, with your pills that are hard to swallow.

And stop smoking out there! You don't ever want to end up with bad lungs or trachea.

1. Glad you're OK!

Years ago daughter, then around 3, stuck a vit. C tablet in her nose! Were on vacation in Scotland. It left the 'premises' sometime that evening, fortunately; ER not necessary. 'Thanks' for the memory!
