I's been ongoing for the last 2 or 3 days
Hun, your account may be new here but you know Chantal lore, I can tell. She’s had diarrhea for literal years. Think back. She’s told storytimes about spraying bathrooms in the earliest days. She’s crapped on the street behind the Kia on camera with Peetz. Every single time she went out in the old days, she “put us in her purse” to rush to a bathroom and we’d hear her gaseous expelling. No grocery store trip didn’t include a bathroom. She intimately knew every bathroom from Gatineau to Montreal. I don’t have to remind you what happened in Thailand, do I? (Both trips?) Poo Poos in the kitchen?
When Chantal had that boil burst which needed home nursing, after her cyst surgery, she also said she had C-Diff. Which Peetz also helped with. C-Diff is a hospital aquired infection and a difficult foe to beat. You need specialized antibiotics, sometimes hospitalization- and you need cleanliness. Everything has to be bleached down to kill the spores, which can live on surfaces for weeks. We know Chins doesn’t own bleach and would never wash her bedding every time she dribbled on it., wash her hands all day and make sure all surfaces were disinfected. Once you have it, you are always susceptible, the spores now live in your colon and if you upset your natural gut flora, they take over again.
My belief with her years-long diarrhea is that she has chronic c-diff. Especially now that she complains of pain, as it can cause pain. She could have colitis too, c-diff can cause colitis, sepsis, and a terrible condition called toxic megacolon-often a death sentence unless the colon is removed.
Sure, she probably has CHF, and her heart is weak, and some heart conditions do present with diarrhea. But Chantal has had leaking ass drainage for so long that if it meant an imminent heart attack, she’d have been dead years ago.
But you are right, she is in danger, anything could go wrong at this point: heart attack, stroke, sepsis, diabetic ketoacidosis…the list goes on and on. Human bodies don’t want to die and it is harder than we think. It’s more likely that this recent decline in Chantal will leads to full immobility and a crisis of care, because I don’t think anybody is taking that on. No clue what Canada has for people like her-here it would be some shitty government nursing home.
However it goes, her timeline is certainly speeding up.
Chinny seems to think that everything she does, other people do too, only secretly. Chantal is the only one brave and open enough to admit her shitting/nose-picking/ladling shit out of sinks and freezing it, on and on. In her mind, everybody does things like this. She doesn’t realize that shitting everytime you stand up and take a few steps is not normal. She doesn’t realize how disastrous everything about her and her life actually is. And she never will.
