My oldest daughter took a baseball bat to the face (yes, on accident). Same daughter about seven years earlier stuck a navy bean up her nose which required a pair of tweezers, surgeon like steady hands and the constant begging of 'Please stop crying, you're going to breathe in too deep and these tweezers are only so long'. Same kid who choked on everything from Froot Loops to noodle soup with angel hair sized noodles with only one noodle in her mouth. The kid could actually choke on air.

Life happens. You tie up the mini-blind cords, cover the outlets and pray for the best.

I put the beans up my nose too as a child. I remember getting them removed quite well. I forget what kind but I put a few in there. It wasn’t fun at all.

When my oldest son was 5 he swallowed a lead fishing sinker. We didn’t even know he had it. He threw it up in the air ,while on the potty, and tried to catch it with his teeth. Right down the throat. Three days in the hospital being fed lots of bread and many blood tests(the sinker was lead) until some smart, elderly surgeon said “send him home, I’ve seen worse...combs and toothbrushes. The minute he walked in the door he made a dash to the bathroom and bang out it came. We has it goldplated and framed.
I could write a book about his medical adventures. He’s 35 now and a dad to 2 girls and the oldest will give him a run for his money.
Oh and we lived in NJ.

ROFL the navy bean in the nose!! My son, when a toddler, didn’t like meat too much. So one day at dinner I see his chicken is seemingly getting eaten and at first I’m pleased til I realize where it’s going: up his nose. That was a fun evening, NOT! LOL!
