'My body went completely numb': Kentucky woman nearly dies after picking up $1 bill from McDonald's floor she suspects was laced with fentanyl - just weeks after cops warned against picking up money
UK Daily Mail ^ | 07/12/2022 | Vanessa Serna

A Kentucky woman was hospitalized after she picked up a dollar bill she suspected was laced with fentanyl on Sunday.

'My body went completely numb, I could barely talk and I could barely breathe. I was fighting to stay awake,' Renne Parson wrote on Facebook.

Parson says she was driving with her husband, Justin, and children through Nashville, Tennessee, when the family stopped at a local McDonald's to use the restroom.

Renne was holding her three-month-old baby while waiting to use the restroom when she spotted a dollar bill on the ground.

'Thinking nothing of it - I picked it up,' Renne wrote.

Once the family got into the car, Renne began experiencing symptoms as she placed the dollar in the interior of the car.

'All of a sudden I felt it start in my shoulders and the feeling was quickly going down my body and it would not stop,' she explained.

Renne grabbed her husband's arm when her body suddenly went numb.

She added, 'I could barely talk and I could barely breathe. I was fighting to stay awake as Justin was screaming at me to stay awake and trying to talk to 911 and find the closest Fire Station or Hospital. I passed out before we arrived at the hospital, but thankfully they worked almost as quickly as my husband did to get me there.'

I read about that years ago, police drug dogs would react to cash in people’s pockets because traces were present on bills, the cities where the drug trade was more prominent they would alert even on random samples throughout those cities. I never thought you could get a contact high though.

You can get dosed with fentanyl through your skin?

Well, there are plenty of studies out there not published by the AMA that say the same thing, go take your pick.

“Officers later determined the dollar didn’t contain traces of the deadly drug”

And nowhere in the story is an explanation of how she might have otherwise OD'd on fentanyl.

It is not very likely with contact with just dry powder.

It is much more likely if you have a solvent (like alcohol-based hand sanitizer) on your skin when you are exposed.

Well, either she didn’t overdose at all (notice all her symptoms can also be symptoms of something like a panic attack), or perhaps she did overdose and the “dollar bill story” was just something they came up with to tell the authorities.

“Sounds like a lawsuit against McDonald’s because it would appear to be their fault. /s”

LOL. You do remember the lawsuit where the idiot “got burns after spilling coffee on his lap” was from a McD’s resto? Don’t give them ideas.

It is BS. The hospital tests didn’t show any drugs and you can’t get poisoned by mere contact with fentanyl. It just doesn’t work that way.

maybe a $100 bill, but I’d be hard pressed to pick something off the floor of a public restroom

Lies

Fentanyl is not easily transmitted via skin except large amounts mixed with liquid medium which is essential

Airborne powder ditto

Five hours constantly breathing the magic dust to just reach threshold therapeutic level

One caveat

Don’t get fentanyl dab on hand and wipe eyes

The moisture in eye will absorb

Don’t pic at a wet itchy butt orifice or rearrange the vag torpedo either

Or swallow it

Those are the facts

Panic attacks or personal injury hustlers

Okay, I’m mostly safe then - ‘cause I can’t resist picking up money, but my hands are always dry.

So..Mom either stepped in the potty to grab a hit of something...or she had a bad McRib sandwich (that’s only back for a short time).

Either way...from her picture...she ain’t guilty.

Someone will use this as an excuse to try to outlaw paper money.
