Dublin man (92) died after poisoning himself by mistakenly pouring detergent over a bowl of cornflakes, inquest hears
Briefly

Ms McDonald said her father would get very confused about time and whether it was day or night. She said he would often get up in the middle of the night for food and she heard him getting cornflakes in the kitchen at around 3.30am on the day of the fatal incident.
Ms McDonald said she then noticed some purple detergent in the bowl of cornflakes before her father confirmed that he had eaten its contents. The coroner, Cróona Gallagher, heard Mr McDonald complained of still feeling unwell after vomiting up a small amount of food and drinking some water.
