Amazing how she can survive a week without food and water but goes into cardiac arrest simply by being bulemic.
Good point.

Her bulemia was a condition that went on for more than a week, along with the fact that she was an active adult, expending what little nutrition her body took in between binging and purging. The potassium imblanance that the malnutrition caused led to the heart attack. Lying in bed with only some reflex movements, requires far less energy, therefore a longer period of time before any systemic shutdowns.
Wow!Very good point.
