True story:
Jayne's English Bull Dog got very sick, very fast... vomiting both food & water. Couldn't keep anything down. Vet's day off, but she called Jayne to let her know what to do till next morning. By the time Emma (6 yo) got to the vet she was so ill that the vet didn't think she would survive. Three days of hospitalization later Emma is recovering & ready to go home. The problem? Emma had eaten Jayne's thong and nearly died.
Emma is totally recovered & doing well. Jayne has learned an important lesson.
This is just a reminder to take care of all the stuff laying around that our little ones can swallow. We just can't be too careful.
