There was some stuff about their presentation and about, I guess, their liver function and the function of other major organs that sort of suggested this was something far more significant than eating a bad piece of steak, as they thought early on.
And eventually, they sort of, through a process of elimination,
decided it was probably Amanita phalloides or death cap mushroom poisoning.
Now, they weren't necessarily in a position at that hospital to diagnose that really clearly from that point, so they started speaking to people in Melbourne who were experts on it, and they started sort of treating them as a presumptive case.
of that fairly early on even before that was sort of you know actually evacuated to to those bigger hospitals and it became you know obviously once once that was the presumptive diagnosis they were really concerned that these people might not survive what happens to the body when when you eat death cap mushrooms
Yeah, it's quite horrific really and it's effectively a, you know, it's quite a slow and painful process for which there's very little that can be done.
And something really stuck in my mind that was particularly sort of frightening about the people that kind of eat death cap mushrooms is that, you know, you go through this process of really intense pain
of vomiting, diarrhea, exactly as you would when you've got a really bad food poisoning.
But then there's this kind of period where it eases off and a lot of people who are suffering kind of think they're kind of getting better.
But what's actually happening at that point is that
It's this, you know, the organs have failed to such a point that they're not even doing that anymore.
You know, there's such a relentless sort of progressive and frightening deterioration of everything that even though symptoms stop, but that doesn't mean you're getting any better.
It in fact means you've, you know, almost progressed to the point where you're beyond saving.
And I found that quite horrifying.
Yeah.
Yeah, so...
More than a day after the others, Erin also goes to hospital.
She's not as unwell, but she's also, you know, half their age and, you know, somewhat healthier.
So, you know, yeah, she's sick, but she's not as bad.
I mean, she walks in, for example, as opposed to having to be, you know, taken there by ambulance is a kind of fair indicator of the difference between the two.
