Back in 2002 a man in the U.K. named Michael Dexter tried to kill himself by ingesting 100 different pills and washing it down with a rum and coke.Well, he was foiled! He was taken to the hospital where he was give 4x the correct dosage of neutralizing medication via an intravenous catheter which burned his arm.
Mr. Dexter has been awarded the equivalent of $180,000 US for the hospital's negligence. No, I could not make this stuff up.
Sayeth he, "I cannot even cuddle my wife with my right hand now. I'm still able to drive but I have a job putting the keys in the ignition. I can't dry glasses or cook dinners. I used to love gardening but I don't do that now."
Isn't that just too damn bad? If the hospital hadn't stepped in, you asshole, you'd be fertilizing the garden with your rotting corpse.
Oh, and best of all, Mr. Dexter tried again to kill himself three years after his initial attempt.
Better luck next time, Mike.

Melts in your mouth, not in your hands. Then again you might have trouble with your arms. But it's worth it.
