Australia fires: family blames teen death on the wild fire smoke

Feb 16,2020 9:56 am

Courtney partridge-McLennan died in November

A night in last November, Courtney partridge-McLennan, said goodnight to her family in Australia and went to sleep in her room.

sometime in the following hours, the 19-year-old woman suffered a suspected Asthma attack. If your parents checked the next morning, Courtney had died.

her family believes that Courtney was to fire the death in Glen Innes , New South Wales , triggered by smoke from the nearby Bush. As many populated areas in Australia's East, the city is enveloped in smoke in the last few months.

"you took with your mobile phone, torch, as if she was looking for something," her sister, Cheryl Leigh, said the BBC's Outside Source programme. "Your Ventolin [inhaler] was on the bed with her. "

Courtney was diagnosed with Asthma as a child. It was usually not severe, but flare up more dust and air pollutants according to her sister.

"you had no symptoms before she went to bed," Cheryl Leigh said.

"she was healthy, and that's what the biggest shock for us. It was so out of nowhere. "

Cheryl Leigh, said the preliminary autopsy report listed The Cause of death as "unconfirmed". But, she added, her parents had said that Courtney had a "hyper-expansion of the lung" - an indicator of an Asthma attack.

"First, when you find her, the comments were," oh, it looks definitely like an Asthma attack, it looked like it happened really quickly,'" Cheryl Leigh said.

According to health officials, Asthma sufferers are particularly at risk in Australia's current bushfire crisis. The condition narrows a person, the respiratory tract, triggered by irritants in the air.

In the last few months, cities including Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Adelaide are some of the worst air quality readings have been recorded worldwide.

In the rural communities closer to the fire zones, the effect was even greater.

two weeks before Courtney's death on November 28, caused the death of Two People .

But the fire had burned in the region since September, and Smoking continue to impact on The Town afterwards. Her family believes that this was The Trigger for your Asthma attack.

health officials always have the urge again warned of the dangers of wildfire smoke, those who are with Asthma , approximately nine Australians their treatments with you.

"It was a really frightening experience if [you are] exposed to a trigger, such as wildfire smoke," said Michele Goldman of the advocacy group Asthma Australia.

"you may experience shortness of breath and wheezing, and the symptoms can worsen quickly and to a very severe Asthma attack, which can be fatal. "

they feared that since the condition is widespread, and usually mild, there is a feeling of self-satisfaction, even in the smoke.

Cheryl Leigh said Courtney had a training for youth workers, and had a passion to help others.

"For us, it's about people Cheryl Leigh said, aware that Asthma is serious,".

"Courtney's death was not an isolated case. "
