You made me curious, and I googled St. Blaise, who, sure enough, was said to have instantly cured a boy who was choking on a fish bone: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Blaise> Very interesting!

OP, best wishes, and I hope that your surgery is already over and you're back home soon. Although I have a feeling that you won't be eating fish again anytime soon... That must have been very scary.


What about St Bonaventure - the patron saint of bowel movements?

Hope our OP is doing well.

Oh wow, sorry OP. I’m sure the operation will go smoothly. I’m curious how big the bone is?

Don’t feel bad. It happened to the Queen Mother one time. She ended up having to go to the hospital for surgery, but lived for another 20+ years after that.

That really sucks. Good that they’re removing it though. Hope it goes smoothly.

And now I’m at the ER being prepped for surgery. It’s apparently lodged in deep and will need to be pulled out in an OR procedure.
