My sister almost lost her lab that way. We almost lost a dog to a swallowed squeaky toy that he could not pass. The rock might pass right through her and be no problem, but in case it doesn't you can get her to the vet to have it removed.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02320687166822603059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-7366056559709635552015-07-21T16:38:12.521-05:002015-07-21T16:38:12.521-05:00I would give the grandgirls some surgical gloves a...I would give the grandgirls some surgical gloves and let them do the sifting--a much better lesson learned.Linda Sandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12734450335251336493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-52476603948611795142015-07-21T14:50:42.129-05:002015-07-21T14:50:42.129-05:00Oh my, I think I would be thinking twice on that ...Oh my, I think I would be thinking twice on that dilemma.

You'll feel the hard stone, and will be able to "move" it up to the top of the bag and drop it into a gloved hand. Hold it under the water faucet, then dip it into some cleaning solution, and you're good to go. Easy, peasy, right? Have FUN! :)<br /><br />Yes, your grandgirls are just darling. Such perfect ages to have these adventures with their Grams.

She swallowed her prosthesis and mom (who had both eyes removed in childhood for the same tumor), had to blindly feel for it in her diapers. Mom was pretty comical telling the story, so just think about the funny blog post you will get out of it!Jim and Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13982110996137470496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-60858554969527274062015-07-21T10:37:03.280-05:002015-07-21T10:37:03.280-05:00Why of course, that is what Grandmas do.Why of course, that is what Grandmas do.Dizzy-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150939928800538404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-85777791525225286262015-07-21T10:28:08.878-05:002015-07-21T10:28:08.878-05:00Absolutely:) Absolutely:) Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-42169256946941642532015-07-21T09:25:12.959-05:002015-07-21T09:25:12.959-05:00PS - Hope it doesn't give Emma any "gr...PS - Hope it doesn't give Emma any "grief" !!Moonfly13https://www.blogger.com/profile/10205504180588291323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-12905690298691921752015-07-21T09:23:13.072-05:002015-07-21T09:23:13.072-05:00A true Apache Tear is a form of black obsidian fou...A true Apache Tear is a form of black obsidian found only in the desert southwest and Mexico - it appears black and opaque but when held up to the light you can see the crystal "tear" hidden inside. I agree you need to retrieve it if possible - but if not, you can look for a new one in a rock/gem store. An Apache Tear is known for it's grief healing properties and if you believe in such things an Apache Tear is a very treasured stone. Good Luck !

Seems like the overwhelming vote is for getting the stone with Avery's help. Could be a serious adventure if it's really small. Wonderful story about the Apache Tear. Wonder what the "formal" name for that stone is. Can't wait to see what happens in the next episode of 'The Grandgirls, Judy and Emma'.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-91916575472384001462015-07-21T08:32:23.482-05:002015-07-21T08:32:23.482-05:00Ha!!
