“Parker, at dinner time, got a little bit of sweetcorn stuck in his nose – so we tried everything but it didn’t do anything.”

The couple then headed straight to their local A&E department, where they revealed they waited four hours to be seen.

So did the doctors remove the sweetcorn?

Well… no.

Mario explained: “So we took him to A&E and waited four hours to see someone.

“And two minutes before we could see the ear, nose and throat specialist, he coughed and sneezed it out himself.”
