    I just watch video on her. He humanized her in this video and I appreciate it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CldLb25tnT0

    She had cancer that was so bad no pain relief could help her. So she turned to a chemical called DMSO and rubbed it on her skin. The reaction was bad. Poor lady.

    I first read about this several years ago, and back then the conclusion was mass hysteria.

    Looks like they updated it now with the theory that her self-injected medication had a freak chemical reaction to the hospital. That’s more plausible.

    “the staff tried to defibrillate her heart; at that point several people[who?] saw an oily sheen covering Ramirez’s body, and some noticed a fruity, garlic-like odor that they thought was coming from her mouth. Registered nurse Susan Kane drew blood from Ramirez’s arm and noticed an ammonia-like smell coming from the tube”

    Holy smokes, imagine being that toxic that even your blood stinks O.O
