Give Lifesaving Medicine To A Dying Girl
When 14-year-old Emma Sloan, who suffered from a crippling nut allergy, accidentally ingested peanut-based satay sauce during a Christmas meal with her family, she didn’t realize her mistake until her throat began closing up. Emma and her family hurried out of the restaurant to seek help, at which point Emma took a sharp turn for the worse and it became apparent she needed immediate help. Tragically, neither Emma nor her family had an EpiPen—a shot of pure adrenaline which can reduce to immediate symptoms of anaphylactic shock—on hand.
While an ambulance was called, Emma’s mother rushed her to a nearby pharmacy, where she calmly explained the situation and asked the cashier for an EpiPen. Unfortunately, they had the good fortune to happen upon a cashier who took the law deadly seriously—literally. He denied the request, stating that he couldn’t serve anyone without a prescription. Even after Emma collapsed, the cashier refused to budge on his position, advising the family to take her to the emergency room when he could have given her a life-saving injection right there. When medical professionals arrived on the scene minutes later, they were unable to reverse the damage that had been done and Emma tragically died.http://listverse.com/2014/01/21/10-infuriating-cases-of-people-refusing-to-help/?utm_source=more&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=direct
