A coin could have swallowed all our happies

While we were wtching cricket match between India and WI on TV last night and Sid was playing with a set of coins...Suddenly I heard Sid, coughing and chocking...when I saw him he was having a coin inside his mouth almost about to swallow...when I looked inside, it was almost getting inside the food pipe.

I was worried and was confused as to what I can do...I reacted quickly and took him on his tummy, and hit hard on his back. As he was facing down, the coin came out immediately, releaving us from the tension.

But there was another question that arose... if there is another coin that went inside? but Sid looked comfortable for us after the coin came out... As he was comfortable for sometime, I referred one of the books which talks about the first aid to be done in such scenarious...with the information we had in that book, I realized no danger if he swallows into his stomache. luckily, the coin did not interfere the wind pipe inside...We are so lucky yesterday... after that incident, Rupu was asking him if he had swallowed any other coin.. he always said "No".

I was thinking to have a X-Ray for him but later i realized it was not needed...

All the night we were watcing him for any symptoms of a coin swallow. Had I not reacted quickly, we never know, a coin could have swalloed all our happiness...GOD is with us... We decided not to leave him with a company of coins going forward..
