What happened?
Speaker 3 (00:30):
I was in the garden. Tea has been into me
because the gardens are horrible.
Speaker 1 (00:34):

try a beautiful okay, hard carry and.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
I felt too good, so I got hard my mode,
did the man around the house or the push and
the whip snipper.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
And then I was like, I'm going to get into
that garden because it gets out of hand.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
All these these plants, like these elephant type of air plants,
they just tripple, and you know they just grow like
the small ones. Yeah, so the big ones don't really
grow as fast, but these.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Little small things they just yet.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Well, no, because I hate snakes and I don't want
a snake near my house.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
So I like cleaning my eye. I like having clean
gardens and all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
There's too much growth. It's scary.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
I like it. I think it looks horrible. I love green.
I don't like dead stuff. Or cutoffs and that.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
So I'm in there and I'm getting into it, and
it's getting towards like the fourth hour of me doing this, and.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
What are you doing? You're just ripping weeds.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
So I was ripping them out and like weeds in that,
but then I was also cutting them, know at the
base and pulling them out so can they can grow
new ones and be fresh. And some of them are
really hard, the stumps, like the little stumps to get
out because they were like so thick.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
And I was lazy.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
So instead of walking back to my shed because I
didn't have the right tools to dig a little stump out,
I just had like a little rake, you know, little
garden rakes, little like a hand one, yeah, a little
hand one. And I was moving all the bark away
and then pulling them out. But that's all I had
to try and dig this thing out right, And I'm
bashing it with this, but I've got to get low,
so I'm whacking. My head's over the top of it,
(02:09):
and then the next and I hit it that hard
and I like squishes it and I feel all this
juice just goes smack bang in my eyes, like my
it's on my eyeballs all out of my face in
my mouth, and then I went oh, and I was
just like, is this poisonous? And then like five seconds later,
my face just went tingly itchy, started burning my tongue
(02:32):
and everything went like really tingly numb, like it felt weird,
and I was like, just I started panicking.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
So I grabbed the water.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
The hose was right there, thank god, and all over
you know, just just spray.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
Did you think that potentially like your tongue could like I.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Was panicking, I was for a little bit. I just
sort of went and I just get back into it
and just forget about it. So I got back into
the garden for a bit, and thirty minutes later it
just got worse. My body was just gone berserk it
she has, I felt like everything was going red, my arms,
my yeah, anyone there, No, I was alone and my neighbor.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Is not even home.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
And I remember taking ring me and she wanted to
talk and I said, I gotta go. I'm I'm so
I think I've swallowed either poison. I just having a
bad reaction to this plant propa panic And.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
She goes, Okay, it's like she thought I.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Was I think of poison myself.
Speaker 1 (03:35):

The boy ripped one out of a garden and got
it on his hands, the juice on his hands, and

wish it kind of did. But anyway, but we just
bought a house to clean out the garden. There's this good,
gorgeous succulent garden in their husband didn't like the plant,
(05:29):
so we ripped it out. It was a fire stick.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Fire stick? Is that a plant?
Speaker 6 (05:33):
I'm not heard of the fire succulent. Put beautiful plants
at home. Yeah, yeah, so heads up, do not let
the kids pull it out or cut it because the
sap from it when in his eyes it burnt his
corn ears. We're at the hospital for six hours and
we had to have three weeks off work because he
(05:54):
could not see from it.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeahs it's extremely pious.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
I can kill your dogs. Can it can poison and
really a lot of damage.
Speaker 4 (06:04):

The first one was at twelve noon. I was out
in front of the Loan. I thought I was having
hunger pains and stopped and got a sausage row and
a milk, had a drink, started throwing up and got
my wife to take me into the Logan hospital. As
they put me on the bed, I died heart attack.

doctor put me on the table and said what would
you like me to do for me? So I'm hooked

a lot of sports, so we were getting the powdered
powerade putting it back in the bottles. Anyway, this one
night he's take you know, picked it up off the
bench and had a drink. Said, oh man, this is awful.
And I thought he was being dramatic because it wasn't
mixed ride or what have you. I took a sip
(07:58):
and I'm like, oh no, that's not right. And then
my daughter said, I know that's the radiator.
