Basically, it means to inhale something. If you aspirate water, you inhale it into your lungs. My sister aspirated a grape, and developed pneumonia and had to go to the hospital to have it removed. She was 45 at the time...silly girl.

I don't mean to laugh but how did a 45 y.o. woman inhale an entire grape??

That's OK, laugh. We all did! She was eating grapes, and started to laugh (uh-oh....don't read this while eating) and whoop! Sucked it in. She's a nurse, too, which makes it all the more ironic.

It's an unwritten rule that you have to pick on your sisters....even when they are 10 years older than you are.
And thanks about my sig. I love all my animals.
