OMG! I can really relate to this one. When I was 3 years old, my grandfather was supposed to be watching me. I stuck a plastic baseball bat in my mouth and started running with it and, you guessed it! I fell and rammed it down my throat. My grandma had to give me a bath and sent my mom for clean clothes before she would let them take me to the hospital!
