In 2011, Mitchell Carey ate a corned beef sandwich at lunchtime. Twenty-five minutes later he was on the floor.
He sweated profusely, stripped off his clothes, and told the people around him his pain was ten out of ten.He was rushed to hospital.
Doctors treated him, stabilised him, and sent him home the same day. A serious case of food poisoning, they figured. Rest, medication, fluids. He would be fine. He was not fine.
The following day he collapsed again at home and was taken back to hospital, where he died on August 18 from multiple organ failure.
His body had been quietly destroying itself from the inside since that first bite.
What was k*lling him was something almost no one on earth had ever encountered. Clostridium perfringens Type A had only been recorded seven times in the world, according to an expert who testified at the inquest.
Not a rare condition. Not an unusual condition. A condition so obscure it barely existed in medical literature.
His doctors had almost no framework for recognising it, no established protocol for treating it, and very little understanding of how fast it could move.
It moved fast. From sandwich to d*ad in two days. His organs failed one by one while his family watched and doctors struggled to understand what they were even looking at.
By the time the picture became clear, there was nothing left to save.
His d*ath had initially been attributed to stepping on a sea urchin during a recent holiday in Greece, which tells you everything about how invisible and bewildering Clostridium perfringens Type A is.
Divorce rates are high in this generation for one simple reason. People don't understand what marriage actually is. Social media made everyone believe there's always someone better out there, a richer man, a prettier woman, a more exciting life, but comparison kills loyalty.
People want weddings, not marriages. They'll spend months planning a ceremony and zero time learning how to communicate when things get hard. Nobody knows how to argue anymore.
They yell, they shut down, they run instead of learning how to fight for each other. Money pressure exposes weak foundations. Instead of building together, couples turn on each other, men stop leading, women stop respecting their men, temptation is everywhere. Now everyone uses therapy words to escape accountability. Everything is toxic, everything is trauma. Nothing is ever their fault.
There's no community pressure to stay married anymore. No elders saying work it out. Just friends saying leave. You deserve better. Kids became optional, sacrifice became outdated and vows became suggestions.
Marriage used to mean I'll suffer with you. Now it means I'll stay as long as I'm happy. And that's why divorce is high. Because people don't know how to suffer together.
They only know how to quit when excitement is no longer there.
We are in the trenches!!
