Renne Parsons experienced a sudden numbness throughout her body after picking up a $1 bill she found on the floor.
After her recovery, Parsons shared her ordeal on social media.
On July 10, 2022, while driving in Nashville, Tennessee with her husband Justin and their children, they decided to stop at a McDonald’s for a restroom break, expecting a typical day.
“Thinking absolutely nothing of it – I picked it up. Holding it in my hand I look around and contemplate giving it to the little girl I saw.
“I wash my hands and I don’t dry them all the way. I go out to meet them and start to walk to the car a minute or so later.”
“Then I grabbed a wipe to wipe off my hands bc I remembered him telling me not to pick up money off the ground as people have been putting it in fentanyl.
“I said, ‘Justin, please help me. I’m not kidding I feel really funny’. I grab his arm not thinking and then my body went completely numb, I could barely talk and I could barely breath.
“I was fighting to stay awake as Justin was screaming at me to stay awake and trying to talk to 911 and find the closest fire station or hospital.”
She further explained: “The police officer that came to take our report told us it was one of two things; either the dollar bill was accidentally dropped and it had been used to cut and or store the drugs or it was purposely left with drugs on it.
“The morale, I don’t care if it’s a $20 bill or a $100 bill do not touch it!!!”
