She would have succeeded too if she hadn't called her husband to tell him what she had done, and he hadn't gotten her to the hospital to get her stomach pumped. Or maybe he called 911 for and ambulance, I don't remember which.


Antihistamine + alcohol is a potent/toxic cocktail


That depends on how much is consumed at once.

the emoji :) was the punctuation between the "you're welcome" clause, and the "do you have physician-assisted suicide by any name, in your neck of the woods?" clause. :study:

I had to look up my facts but it seems the issue of physician assisted death or euthanasia is still being debated/bandied about between the government and the courts here.

I couldn't find a more recent source than the one below, so its still in dormant mode...

^^^that is very interesting, seems your nation's religious establishment has a lot in common with the deep south/bible belt here.

Not as bad as that I don't think. The 1960s to 1980s were a different matter of course.

that is comforting to know. i'd hate for any other country to have the stricture of our bible belt.

We have multiple party system here, but the specifically Christian and Muslim parties are not very strong. They only get seats because of our proportional representation system. We had literally hundreds of regional and nationwide parties contesting last year's local government elections.

Come election time they the ACDP gets around 2% of the vote in general.

You're right. Many countries would be 100 times worse to live in.

which our country could also become if they ended up taking over the whole country a la theocracy. we are uncomfortably close to that point. think "Gilead" which seems to be what the american bible belt salivates over.
