In Turkey, 35 olives, 28 date seeds and 5 stones were removed from the stomach and intestines of a 92-year-old woman.

So the “stones” are bezoars, or concretions of previously swallowed seeds that formed over years. The “olives” are olive pits. This lady almost died from years of swallowing pits and seeds that pretty much anyone knows you shouldn’t swallow. Her small bowel died and perforated, and the section of necrotic bowel was removed, the remaining bezoars and random pits were evacuated from her stomach (I’m sure she had years of issues from carrying these things in her stomach, but it wasn’t until one of them moved into her small intestine and blocked it that she really had a crisis), and the patient survived—no small feat for a person of her age to survive *any* surgery, much less a perforated bowel and the accompanying risk of dying from septic shock. It’s charming that she has embraced her role of cautionary tale, and is now urging people not to swallow large seeds!

She ate the stones to flush out the date seeds

“Şerife Ay expressed that she loves dates and olives very much and that she swallowed their seeds, saying, “How was I to know this would happen? My daughter in the village said, ‘Mom, give me the seeds.’ I said, ‘No’ and swallowed them, but over time I couldn’t eat bread or drink water.”

So about that Mediterranean diet…

Call me nuts, but I think it was maybe the five stones that did her in.
