Alamosa, Colorado, Salmonella Outbreak
According to The Denver Post story, Miya Spangler, one of the lab-confirmed cases, became ill last Tuesday:
"Last Tuesday she woke up after midnight crying. She had a really high fever and bad diarrhea," said Miya's mother, 20-year-old Amanda Spangler.Posted March 2008.
"I had a really bad feeling about it," she said.
She took her daughter to the doctor the day officials realized they were in the grip of a salmonella outbreak caused by contaminated city drinking water.
"I felt terrible because I gave her the bottle, the formula, that made her sick," Amanda said. "For two days she had no expression on her face. She just lay there."
Miya's father, Joey, said that for part of her week-long illness his daughter was either asleep or crying.
The water was bad, so her parents couldn't bathe her to bring down her temperature, which her mother said topped out at 105.9 degrees.
The baby had a terrible rash. She threw up. She had blood in her stool, her mother said.
