Another drink spiked

The daughter of a friend sent this to me by email. It is an account of how her drink was spiked. She is a very respectable, hardworking teacher. Read on:

Hi Sue

The question is, who would do such a thing as to spike either my or Michelle's drink? Why bother? I look back at that evening and ask myself who would've wanted to spike my drink and why? Nobody tried it on with me that night. I was with a bunch of very good friends and some of their friends. Maybe the glass had something dodgy about it before I even drank out of it, i.e. maybe it wasn't anything to do with anyone of our party. I'll never know. But what I do know is that I didn't drink enough to be sick about forty times and be banged up in bed for 3 days, having lost just about any ooomph about me and about life.

If I drank too much that night, then maybe I'd've been sick once or twice and been OK after that. But no. My friends assure me that there were 3 bottles of wine between about 8 of us. I think I had about 3 glasses, but I can't remember exactly. My friends assure me that I didn't drink 3 bottles of wine all on my own!

It's a mystery.

But also quite scary when you go out on your own and live on your own. If it wasn't for a very kind friend of mine who managed to somehow get me home, who knows where I'd've ended up - at the end of the train line somewhere, unconscious? Or maybe someone would've taken me to hospital? Who knows.

A very unpleasant experience that I don't ever want again!

I'm so sorry to hear that it happened to Michelle too.
