> He told me that when he arrived, Halle was barely sitting in the

> She couldn’t hold her own head up and when he looked into her eyes,
> she couldn’t focus them.
> He immediately scooped her up and rushed her to the ER, and then
> called me.
> When we got there, they ran blood test after blood test and did
> x-rays, every test imaginable. Her white blood cell count was normal,
> nothing was out of the ordinary. The ER doctor told us that he had
> done everything that he could do so he was sending her to Saint
> Francis for further tests.
> Right when we were leaving in the ambulance, her teacher came to

> she had licked hand sanitizer off her hand.

> Hand sanitizer, of all things.

> When we arrived at Saint Francis, we told the ER doctor there to

> The results showed her blood alcohol level was 85% – six hours after

> Since then, her school and a few surrounding schools have taken
> this out of the classrooms of all the lower grade classes, but what’s
> to stop middle and
high schoolers from ingesting the stuff?
>
> After doing research on the Internet, we have found out that it
> only takes 3 squirts of the stuff to be fatal in a toddler. For her
> blood alcohol level to be so high was to compare someone her size to
> drinking something 120 proof. So please PLEASE don’t disregard this
> because I don’t ever want anyone else to go through what my family and
> I have gone through.
