Whoa - anaphylactic shock = not cool

She had an extremely severe reaction to seafood (the anchovies). The girl who did this, to my knowledge, has been given the boot (not that it's hard to find a low-paying job around here, but still). Her throat had closed and I recall blue and purple shades in her face...


An EMS guy helped me lift her on a rolling bed (sorry for lack of technical wording here), and promptly took her to a room, while the triage nurse looked on. () Afterwards I had to go chase down the closest parking meter so that my little Yaris wouldn't be towed away.

She came out okay. Thank god, she had me pretty worried when she blacked out. She doesn't remember a thing, I thought she'd at least remember me blowing by the fire truck's sirens, nope.

She was heavily drugged up, so she needed a bit of time to recover, but I just saw her tonight and she's back to her normal mushy self.

Oh, my she was fired. What a terrible punishment....

I wonder what would have happened if your GF ended up brain damaged or dead? Would the Authorities have sent her coworker to her room without supper?


Seriously.... poisoning people is illegal. Why isn't that dumb cow out on bond instead of out of work?

In a Just Nation people who caused anaphylatic shock as a prank would get the same treatment, say Water Boarding. I think a few minutes of being slowly smothered would give them a sense of perspective about their "pranks".
