Hannah Glass had no idea that her parents would be collecting her cremated ashes a few days after she made the decision to eat a baked brownie.\n
Although the college student had always been aware of her peanut sensitivity, something in the candy killed her after just two pieces.\n
It had just been two days since Glass\u2019s 19th birthday.\n
Hannah Glass, a bright and kind student at Maranatha Baptist University, passed very unexpectedly after an unanticipated allergic reaction to a brownie. Her death has left a community in Wisconsin in mourning.\n
The young woman, who had just turned 19, reacted violently to a brownie that a friend had given her on November 5. The teen was generally cautious and had a documented peanut allergy, but she was not aware that the candy allegedly contained roasted peanut flour, a gluten-free substitute.\n
\n\u201cThe second bite, she knew something was wrong,\u201d Hannah\u2019s father, David Glass, told WISN. The dad then explained her friend brought his daughter the brownie from a women\u2019s group on campus and while the treat was made with peanut flour to accommodate gluten-free students, it didn\u2019t consider those with severe peanut allergies.\n
David and Hannah\u2019s mother, Janean, hurried from their Milton, Wisconsin, home to the school residence in Watertown, which was about 45 minutes away. \u201cWe believe because this product contained roasted peanut flour, separate from oily peanut butter, that masked this,\u201d David added.\n
\u2018Right lung collapsed\u2019
\nHannah\u2019s response was swift and violent. She had thrown up, developed hives, and found some respite with Benadryl, according to her father.\n
But her condition drastically changed as she crawled up to her top bunk to rest.\n
\u201cWhen Hannah rolled on her side, the anaphylaxis reaction that we had not seen before hit incredibly hard. This caused her to gasp for breath, leading to the collapsing of the lung, further exacerbating the situation,\u201d the grieving dad writes in the Facebook post that he shared November 11.\n
Before receiving her EpiPen, Hannah lost consciousness \u201cpart way down\u201d after climbing down the ladder from her bed.\n
\u201cI picked Hannah up\u2026and carried her outside to wait for the ambulance to arrive,\u201d the father penned. \u201cShe was completely unresponsive, and I was incredibly helpless.\u201d\n
Hannah\u2019s heart had stopped for four minutes, despite the paramedics\u2019 best efforts to revive her. After being taken to Watertown Hospital right away, she was moved to Foedtert Hospital and put on a ventilator.\n
Brain \u2018terminally damaged\u2019
\nDoctors battled to save her life, but the damage was too great for her family to watch helplessly.\n
\u201cThe majority of her brain was unmistakably, seriously, critically, and without the life-sustaining measures in place, TERMINALLY damaged,\u201d David writes om Facebook of the brain damage sustained after having several seizures, which led to \u201csevere brain swelling.\u201d\n
\u201cThere were no conversations of quality of life or anything like that. This was only life and death!\u201d\n
