A&E Again

So one week after spending a couple of hours up Basildon A&E as Brandon had been charging around after school and bumped into a friend splitting his eye open, we find ourselves there again. This time for Holly and for a very unusual emergency which we have not experienced before.
 
She sits on a hospital bed with smiles, but can you tell what she was in there for?
 
Believe it or not Holly had rammed a large chunk of apple up one of her nostrils during the school run this morning. Tina tried to get it out with some tweezers but only succeeded in pushing it up further. A ENT doctor took a look at first and failed dismally to pull the apple out. So then Tina had to wait for the senior ENT to come and have a try. Fortunately the senior ENT managed to get the apple out with a combination of suction and some bendy tools. Had he of failed she would have been heading down to the operating theatre to get it removed!!!! So fours hours later and all is well and Holly is back at home. Fingers crossed she has learnt her lesson to not stuff things up her nose!
