I was at work the other night and when I called home, Ben told me that Kessler came up to him all sad and said Dad, I am in trouble. Ben asked him what he had done and Kessler responded that he ate a penny.
I hate that feeling of being gone and there is nothing I can do, there would have been nothing I could have done if I were home. We truly don't know if he did swallow a penny, it has been 48 hours and nothing has come out yet.
I am not sure if I should take him in and have an x-ray or just keep waiting, he hasn't been in any pain he has commented that he thought the penny was in his back and also commented that it was in his lower chest area?
None of the other kids have ever done anything like this, so I was a little confused on what to do.
He also commented today that he ate rocks, that kid is so weird. I am almost certain he didn't eat rocks, he was with me all day.....but who knows what tomorrow will bring, hopefully a penny.
