Ever had a crazy night?
Drinks at a bar, or hanging flowers at a siam diu (Thai disco), or partying your heads off at Zouk, or Attica, or maybe the new Marquee.
You wake up the next morning (or afternoon), hungover with a massive headache, and you have no idea what happened last night or how you got home.
Well, if you’ve experienced that, you’d probably resonate well with this next man. Although his case is a bit unusual.
Keys Disappeared After A Night Of Drinking
A 26-year-old man in Guangzhou, China, known as Chang, was up for a night of drinks with his friends on the eve of Dragon Boat Festival. Maybe he was celebrating after a long week of work and was in the #TGIF mood (well, #TGIT since it was a Thursday). Drinks were consumed (perhaps they were Chang beer. Get it, eh? Chang), and the rest of the night was a blur.
In the middle of the night, a dead drunk Chang somehow managed to arrive back at his doorstep. He fumbled around for his keys, but they were nowhere to be found. Perhaps he dropped it somewhere, or his senses were too dulled to find it.
Eventually, he phoned his family members at home to open the door for him, and he stumbled into the house and fell asleep soon after in a drunken daze.
Over the night, as the numbing effects of the alcohol faded, Chang started to feel increasingly sharp pains in his chest.
The next morning, he made his way to Dongguan Hospital for emergency treatment.
Keys Were In His Stomach
Upon receiving the results of his X-ray, the doctors were shocked that the pain was caused by Chang having swallowed his keys whole the night before.
What?!
Honestly, I thought this was something you only see in cartoons like Tom&Jerry.
As you can probably expect, Chang had no recollection of how this occurred.
As the doctors brainstormed for a solution, they ruled out excretion and extracting it through the throat, as the former would cause intestinal obstruction while the latter would cause tears in the oesophagus.
Alas, they had to resort to surgery.
Although it was the holidays in China, luckily for Chang, two specialists returned early from their vacation early to assist with the situation. An anesthesiologist administered anaesthetic (try saying that 10 times really fast) on him, allowing his muscles to relax for the keys to be extracted safely.
While Chang has made a full recovery, I expect he won’t be getting drunk any time soon.
Be careful not to get drunk if you’re going out for some fun and drinks this weekend, or else you may not end up as lucky as Chang.
Practice moderation! That’s the key to it.
