Nutty and fruity

From my Facebook, Ignominious Awards.

(Just 2 months ago, an Irishman injected his arm with semen to cure his back pain and now this!)

Her alternative way to be fit was unfruitful. This fruity woman only landed herself in the Emergency Ward. A Ms. Zeng in the Chinese province of Hunan wanted to do anything to be as fit and healthy. The 51 year old was a huge fan of alternative medicine. This infatuation lead to the depths of stupidity. She decided she'd get her five-a-day and go turbo with it. Blending 20 fruits together, she put her exilir of life in a IV drip system and injected it into her arm. Obviously, this was catastrophic to her body. At first she had an itchy arm and high temperature but her condition worsened to the point of hospitalization on February 22nd, 2019. Her health cocktail lead to an infection spreading to her organs. She suffered heart, lung, liver and kidney damage but fortuitously for her, the hospital is managing to treat her.

Unbelievable that somebody would think injecting anything like this directly into their bloodstream is a good idea. Definitely worthy of an HM in my book! Thanks, John.

There's a reason people are trained to make IV fluids... Gee freaking whiz.
