This is an email from my old man today word for word with the photo.
Now my Mum has travelled to Thailand 3 times and can hold her own when eating chillies - not saying she loves them but she can handle them ok.
So what happened here?
Mum was cooking tea and she picked a chilli from the plant in our conservatory and sliced it up and put it in a stirfry. The fumes started to give her asma,then she touched her lips and made them numb! ,then she must have touched he eye then she started to panic and scream with the pain. She couldnt see to get to the shower, so I had to lead her.
While she was washing her eyes I tried to get a doctors opinion,but it was after hours so I got hold of an emergency no and spoke to a nurse, she said to put her in the shower.
After about 5 minutes Rosemary asked me to call the ambulance,I put it off for a couple of minutes and she started to come good,she now has a bad headake but is OK.
It is now 2 hours later and we have had all the windows open and I am getting a tight chest, so it must be a good brew! I am not sure if I should eat it for tea.
The moral of the story? Those Thai girls that cook with chillis must be darn tough!
