A woman bitten by a UK native snake while walking her dog in a country lane says she is lucky to be alive after being left in hospital for two days. Beau Avis was walking her dog on Wednesday when an adder bit her ankle sending her into anaphylactic shock within minutes.
He leg rapidly swelled and turned yellow. The 26-year-old, who luckily was with her dad Kevin at the time, was rushed to hospital in where doctors, by chance, had anti-venom to hand.
"I was put into resus and was drifting in and out of consciousness," said Beau, a PR worker.
