When I was 16 I had an aspirin burn a hole in my esophagus. The doctor gave me chalky liquid to drink but I couldn't because it was white. It healed by itself after a few weeks all the same.

It means a lot, Jenny. I'm glad you could come see us.

Has anyone else ever gotten a pill stuck in his/her throat?
It happened to me three days ago and the huge glass of water I swallowed in one gulp came about ten minutes too late. I'm still feeling the effects. This is probably the worst thing that could happen to me.
Except that I also lost and need to have replaced my check card for maybe the sixth time since I've had one.
This morning the toilet seat smashed down on my hand too.
I got off the bus last night with a kid after chatting with him the entire ride, and his house was right by the bus stop. His roommates were waiting on the 3rd floor porch with a bucket. They yelled vulgar names at him and then threw the contents of the bucket on him, which was a heap of water. It landed on him perfectly squarely. I could hardly believe it. At least that was pretty good .
