My post from yesterday reminded me of another little incident with the same neighbors. They had a son, Steve, that was near Lana Kay, our daughter, in age. He was a little older than her but they often played together. They were perhaps about three or four years old.
Once when they were playing they had some small beads they were playing with and Steve stuck a couple of them up inside his nose. We really didn't know how many he put in his nose but anyway he couldn't get them out. His mother panicked and started having him blow his nose and trying to get them out. I think he did blow out a couple but to this day we don't know how many didn't come out. Anyway, Jean, his mother hoped they were all out. He got a long speech about not doing that again!
Unfortunately, Steve did not live to a very old age, He had some kidney disease and had to be on dialysis for as long as he lived. I think he died about age thirty five or somewhere near that.
