Lian gets bitten by a western diamondback rattlesnake in Tucson Arizona whilst tending to a friends garden. The snake was about 4foot long, and bit her on two knuckles.
She needed over 20 vials of anti-venom.
Two months on, she still can't straighten her fingers

Yes, it is going on 2 years old and there is some bad language.

Yes, they are from the UK.

This occurred in Tuscon, AZ. (I think the UK will pay health care costs in the US for its citizens.)

Watch their reaction at the cost of the care.

Even with 80/20 that would suck.
