Her father is suing.

She has a nut allergy and ate baklava? Because someone told her it didn’t have nuts in it? IT’S MADE OF NUTS!!! Did she eat it with her eyes closed?

She didn’t have an epi pen? She didn’t go to the school nurse? Checked out of school and took a walk instead? What? What?

I don’t have allergies, so someone please help me make sense of this. How could a seventeen year old with nut allergies eat baklava and head to CVS for some Benadryl afterwards?

Isn’t that an unusually bad series of decisions? Darwin Award level? I mean, if it wasn’t this, she might have died trying to dry her hair in the microwave.

    I don’t think I knew baklava had nuts in it back when I was 17.

    An epi-pen costs $750. The nurse would have called an ambulance, and an ambulance ride and ER visit is going to be about $5000. Trying to avoid that kind of debt is not unreasonable.

    She didn’t suffer from a nut allergy. She suffered from untreated Luigi-deficiency.
