Hi, Patricia,
Now, this is my own opinion given only after having a similar incident
occur some years back; my dear girl popped into my bathroom and in front
of my eyes....before I could reach her ate two tampons from the
wastebasket. (We now keep wastebaskets on countertops even with doors
closed.) At any rate, I was concerned that we couldn't get it
endoscopically and I didn't think it would pass, so opted for abdominal
surgery. The surgery was fast, very successful and she healed just
fine.
I'm not sure I would risk having a razor try to pass..........
just my 0001. cents. <G>
