She said " its like I can't get enough water". So isn't this something else? Something changed in her body that made her feel the need to drink more water and it wasn't enough. WTF. She died of water toxicity but not by being ignorant. She said its like i can't get enough water. That means there was something else driving her need for more water. Not an open and shut case!!!!!!!

I drank 1 case of beer equivalent of 6 liters.. Still alive and kicking. šŗšŗšŗ
Lmfao this bitch is getting put on blast
Shocking how the Americans screams everywhere with whiny voices: "Like OMG, you NEED to carry a water bottle and drink like idiot all the time!" And people in Europe are like: You will die because you are stupid. And there we see it again. What kind of schools they have in that third country? But hey, big 5 gallons water bottles are so cooooool. Liken OMG. RIP.
How close did she live to East Palestine, Ohio?
š dear, heavenly father, put your arms around this family and hold them as long as they need it. In Jesus name I pray amen.
Moderation is the key to everything. Remember your body can only take so much of whatever youāre doing to it and thereās no parts to exchange for that body. Let us have moderation in all we do guys.
This is so so sad! She was such a beautiful lady. My heart goes to her family. š¢
This is fake.
True
Easy if your feeling sick it happened to me it knocked out all trace chemicals
This is fake. This is not true. It is disturbing why they would lie about this. She had something else wrong with her. You can't die from drinking a half gallon of water in 20 min.
This is ignorant and lacks informationā where are the actual medical diagnostics and entire post medical work up???? All s/s sounded like dehydration and heat strokeā- this is ridiculous to tell ppl to not drink enough water!But the issue was the cooling that didnāt take place. In the ER you are given liters of fluid. Ugh this is so dangerous to claim it was water intoxication and not a heat stroke without a very thorough medical review considering high heat indexes all over the world! Lame price lacking info and could be dangerous to the actual dehydrated/ heat stroking!
Couple questions. If they had immediately given her a spoonful of salt would that have helped? Or because it's going immediately to her stomach and not her bloodstream would it be pointless? And/or at the point where she lost consciousness was she already too far gone, the damage was done?
Rip Ashley Summers, you will be missed
I'm sorry to hear that
Hyponatremia is extremely rare, except in cases of prior drug useā¦as in, fat burners & metabolism boosters.
Mothers, specifically, will ingest excessive amounts of ādiet pillsā, prior to going on their beach vacations, in order to regain their pre-labor bodies. Itās a sad truth we all tend to avoid talking about, but it is a fact of western life.
My wife, and I drink well over a half gallon each, prior to our morning workout being done, and still drink throughout our workday.
Also, what mother of two doesnāt know what pedialyte is?
Stop taking ādiet pillsā, momsā!!
Look, itās the gleeful dummy News anchorwoman. At least she can read a teleprompter.
He is an indian man
Consuming jabs is unhealthy
