There was a 40 year old lady looking for stuff and I helped her. She saw the lines (half way to elbow) and said get your ass to the hospital right now. Don't worry about your sister's basement project, you can die. Made me promise her.

It was not presented as an option. Thank you, Ma'am!

I was there all day getting several bags of antibiotics. Lines went above the elbow in the five or six hours I was there.
