I took your thread title way too literally. I had images of you literally choking after having put a phone in your mouth, and was really confused!
Anyway, my autistic moment aside, mistakes like this happen, and it's not the end of the world. We have a tendency to catastrophize and imagine the worst, but I imagine if you just explain what happened, they'll understand. It's been almost a week since you posted this thread, have any more developments taken place?
