Intense Dehydration : Mother Dies After Drinking Too Much Water

Intense Dehydration : Mother Dies After Drinking Too Much Water

As the elders of yesteryear wisely cautioned, “Too much of a good thing can be bad for you.”

This saying sadly holds true for a family from Indiana in the United States, who now find themselves mourning the loss of a beloved 35-year-old mother-of-two, Ashley Summers. Her tragic passing was a result of a perilous situation caused by an excessive intake of water.

Ashley Summers had been enjoying the Fourth of July festivities on a serene lake in Indiana when she suddenly began experiencing intense dehydration.

Her relative, Devon Miller, shared that Ashley had developed a severe headache and sought relief by drinking copious amounts of water.

“She felt dizzy and had this headache,” Miller said. “They got home. She walked across the garage to go into the house and she passed out in the garage.”

Mother Dies After Drinking Too Much Water
Within a mere 20 minutes, Ashley consumed the equivalent of four 16-ounce water bottles, slightly over a litre. Tragically, this rapid intake proved to be lethal as she later collapsed in her home’s garage.

Frantically, her husband, Cody, sprang into action, attempting to save his wife as she fell backwards and lost consciousness. Despite his desperate efforts and administering CPR, the situation rapidly deteriorated, and Ashley had to be rushed to the hospital.

“Cody gave her CPR and got her going a little bit, but by the time they got to the hospital and ran tests and everything, they had to put her on the ventilator. By that time, her brain had swelled enough that it shut all circulation off to her brain, and she was brain dead. Then, that night, she was gone. It’s been a real shock for the kids and everyone,” Miller a news outlet.

Doctors revealed that she fell victim to water intoxication, an uncommon but dangerous condition that disrupts the body’s electrolyte balance when water is consumed too rapidly.
