If it was heat stroke, why did she have her coat on all the time she was walking/being helped to the van & all the time she was waiting for the van? If you were overheating, wouldn’t the first thing to do would be to take off your coat?
While waiting for the van, she was standing under a shade tree.
This “overheating” story is complete BS. She didn’t faint and wilt to the ground. She was passed out on her feet & held up by the pole & her handlers.
As others have said, the handlers/medical staff weren’t surprised, indicating this has happened many times before. Also, if this hadn’t happened before and they didn’t know what was wrong with her, they would have taken her to the hospital emergency room.
It wasn't heat stroke. I'm ex-military and trained in First Aid. "Heat stroke" doesn't allow you to do a photo-op some 2 hours later. It's a potential killer and extended rest and IV fluids are needed. You just don't recover that quickly from "heat stroke".
Also, I doubt it was heat exhaustion since the weather was mild. Add up her VERIFIED concussion, blood clot, corrective lenses glasses, thyroid problem, her age and weight, tripping, now fainting, not to mention her moments of a 100 yard stare. It's obvious the woman definitely has a debilitating disease or syndrome. The root cause remains speculative.
