Woman has stomach removed after bar serves her liquid nitrogen at 18th birthday
Bbc.com reports:
A wine bar has been fined £100,000 after a woman drank a cocktail containing liquid nitrogen and had to have her stomach removed.
Gaby Scanlon, of Heysham, Lancashire, was served the Nitro-Jagermeister while celebrating her 18th birthday in 2012. Oscar's Wine Bar in Lancaster previously admitted health and safety failings, at Preston Crown Court. The court heard Ms Scanlon was left close to death after drinking the £3.95 shot. She was taken to Lancaster Royal Infirmary, where a CT scan found a large perforation in her stomach. Ms Scanlon, now 20, spent three weeks in hospital, undergoing surgery to remove her stomach and connect her oesophagus directly to her small bowel. Her solicitors told the court the experience, on 4 October 2012, had "completely changed" her life. She now suffers from "episodes of agonising pain", has to avoid some foods and can no longer enjoy eating, they said. Describing the moment she drank the shot, Ms Scanlon told the court: "I turned to the man and asked if it was okay to drink. He said 'Yes'. "Smoke was coming from my nose and mouth. Straight away I knew something was not right. My stomach expanded."...Sign up for our free e-mail list to see future vaticancatholic.com videos and articles.
