Geh. I’ve been immersed in Chemistry for three days now. And this lesson I’ve been writing hasn’t been pleasant – it’s been on all the varied and sundry ways you can die by Chemistry. Specifically salts. If the salt lesson is doing this to me, what will happen in the Household poisons lesson, when I have to relay the information in the Terrorist Poison cookbook?

In 2001 I suffered from an extreme case of hyponatraemia while training for the Honolulu Marathon. It was ghastly. I pretty much flooded all of the sodium out of my muscles by drinking too much water. Luckily I didn’t go into a coma or anything, but I did have to go to the ER. Oy. Not fun.
Dang. Add that to my list of reasons not to train for a marathon.
Yeah. That pretty much sucked. Don’t ask me why I want to train for another marathon. I think the lack of sodium during that period affected my brain. 😉
Can’t we just put ex-lax in the terrorists water? Maybe they can crap their way into martyrdom.Just a suggestion.
You cannot die that way. If you could, do you think I would have survived 1995-1996?
