Niño de 3 años se tragó una semilla de mandarina y muere asfixiado[ESP-ENG]
Nowadays mothers are raising their children for the sake of raising them, of course we are living in a different era, but it is good to listen to mothers who have had experience and you can see if you take their advice or not. Several days ago a young mother, only 20 years old, passed by the greengrocer's in front of our house, she was going to buy some vegetables but she didn't have enough money and asked the boy who sells them if he could give her a tangerine so she could sit there while she looked for the remaining money, the boy gave the tangerine to the child who is only 3 years old, he was very happy and grabbed the fruit and sat on the wax while his mother went to get the money.
The child peeled only his tangerine I guess he was used to do it, he started to eat the fruit when suddenly he coughed but it was a strange cough the boy asked him what was wrong and when he saw that the child was coughing as if he was choking he had no choice but to ask for help since he was a teenager he did not know anything he was sweating from fear, The mother arrived very calmly, what happened and the child was still coughing, she hit him in the chest, in the back, she shook him but with an incredible calmness, everyone looked at her and told her, look, he is choking, don't wait so long, take him to the nearby ambulatory, they will know what to do in these cases; with her annoyed face she grabbed her boy and took him away.
The truth is that we did not know at the time what had happened to the child since she took him with her, the next day the news arrived that the child had died suffocated by two tangerine seeds. Now I say why didn't she listen and take him to be helped, the doctors are prepared for that, the child could have been saved, but by not listening she caused the death of the little one.
Do not give fruits with seeds to children under 5 years old, the size of the seeds range from 3 to 10 mm, imagine that a child swallows a tangerine seed which the diameter of the trachea varies depending on their age which does not exceed 8 mm; it is important to take care of every detail of the food we offer our children and do not give whole fruits as they are still small and do not know how to defend themselves, do not believe that since they are over 1 year old they can eat alone and anything. I advise you to take care of the little ones of the house and always with 4 eyes.
