chewing gum


So who knew that Shawn wasn't supposed to be chewing gum? No one told us...


When Shawn asked for gum yesterday I did first think "is there any reason why he can't have it?" But Dave and Shawn both pointed out no one ever said don't chew gum - so I gave him a stick. Must have been about 30 seconds later, possibly a full minute, and in comes a nurse. She looks at Shawn and asks "are you having seizures in your mouth?" and proceeds to hold out her hand with a paper towel on it, universal symbol for "spit out that gum!"


I may never chew gum again without thinking of "mouth seizures."
