I didn't call but it happened to my daughter.....
We were sitting around a campfire one evening with my wife, her brother, his wife, and our 4 girls and their son. It was 4th of July so the kids had those glow sticks acting like lightsabers and such when our then 3 year old decides to bite the glowstick in half. Now she turns around and her entire mouth is filled with bright blue glow juice and she is coughing/choking. Now being a nerd about stuff and researching things before giving them to my kids I had known for years that the stuff was non toxic.
The wife and I kind of chuckled and I may have whispered " dumbass", but we both got up and she took her into the camper to get cleaned up and I went to grab a glass of milk to help wash her mouth out.
Little did we know that our scatterbrained over reacting sister in law decided to call 911 and say our daughter just ingested poisonous/toxic waste and needed paramedics immediately. I stick my head out of the camper when I kind of overhear her half screaming at the poor operator and tell her to pipe down the we had it under control.
Fast forward 5 minutes and I am talking to the 911 operator myself and she politely told me we had done the exact thing she would have told us to do and to have a nice evening... all the while our 3 years old is running around asking for a smore.
Sister in law still over reacts all the time. It now gets comical.
