''(Bobby) told me I had to swallow my ring to protect it; so I popped that sucker off, put it in my mouth and swallowed.''
A woman from California in the US has gone viral on Facebook, after recounting a story where an exciting dream led to her swallowing her engagement ring in real life.
Jenna Evans awoke on Wednesday morning to find her engagement ring missing, directly after a 007 style intense dream involving a high speed train chase with bad guys in hot pursuit.
In the story that has over 57,000 shares on Facebook the San Diego woman described how her fiance, Bobby Howell and herself, “were in a very sketchy situation involving a high speed train and bad guys,” Evans wrote in a Facebook post.
“(Bobby) told me I had to swallow my ring to protect it; so I popped that sucker off, put it in my mouth and swallowed it with a glass of water,” Evans wrote.
“We laughed pretty hard for about an hour and a half, called my mom, laughed until we were crying, googled ‘do other adults swallow rings’ because kids do it all the time, but apparently it’s less common for adults,” Evans wrote.
She and Howell then drove to urgent care where she had to explain to various doctors what happened.
“The doctor ordered an Xray and seemed pretty shocked when she walked back in with a second doctor and showed me that sure enough, my ring was right there in my stomach!” Evans wrote.
“I could definitely feel it in my guts, it was starting to really hurt and make us nervous.”
Doctors decided letting the ring pass through Evans naturally wasn’t the best option and opted for an upper endoscopy.
A procedure where a doctor uses a flexible tube with a camera to see the lining of the gastrointestinal tract.
“Everything went great, they found my ring just beyond my stomach in my intestines, retrieved it and gave it to Bobby, not me,” Evans wrote.
Howell gave Evans her ring back Thursday, she wrote, and she promised not to swallow it again. She told KGTV she’s started taking it off at night.
“We’re still getting married and all is right with the world,” Evans wrote.
All's well hat ends well!
