Aspiration.

Not a diagnosis but a description.

Thanks HC
Bloody rude .
Who's rude?
Rtaxron.
My dad died from aspiration pneumonia. :-(
Same as my Mum Tilly after she had stroke...
Not nice, Tilly :(
No, it wasn't, Hc. It was dreadful!
Just to reassure Rtaxtron that the condition is not fatal in itself.
Boo hoo, sqad didn't get a " thank you " despite being second to reply.:-)
^ both replies were at the same time
Didn't want to worry you, Rtraxon. I should not have mentioned my dad, really.
One reply was obviously quicker though, ( no big deal ) :-)
Rtaxron thanked the first to reply, which is bloody polite, not bloody rude. Calm down, Sqad, you get lots of thanks round here (well deserved).
Asquith/jno

This sort of thing is happening more and more on AB and IS bloody rude when only one poster is thanked, whenever the reply is posted.
It has nothing to do with "Boo hoo" it is also about courtesy.
It is also used by some miscreants to lure the victim into an argument where quite often the victim is suspended.
One of the reasons that aspiration is brought on can be when a pharyngeal pouch empties.

I am obviously thick as I cannot for the life of me see what was so rude.
Incidentally, I am not certain that aspiration is the correct term in your context.

Aspiration is the act of drawing in air such as breathing in and in some languages a vacuum cleaner is called an aspirator. On the other hand getting solids or liquids into an airway is called ingestion, such as an aircraft engine ingesting a bird. The question is sometimes asked when wanting to establish whether what you describe has happened: Have you ingested food ?

Is pointing all this out perhaps ultra rude ?
can we play nicely and keep our hands to ourselves ?
