'Doctors told my mum poison symptoms were anxiety'
Briefly

The tragic story of Carol Baxter and her husband Stephen illustrates a harrowing account of medical neglect and manipulation. After being fatally poisoned by a family friend, Luke D'Wit, their daughter Ellena recounted her mother's health struggles with Hashimoto's disease, which were misdiagnosed as anxiety despite severe symptoms. D'Wit's deceit included creating a fake doctor to advise them. The situation deteriorated, as he fed her harmful substances disguised as vitamins, resulting in devastating consequences for the family, culminating in her tragic death on April 9, 2023.
"[Luke D'Wit] was quadrupling the dosage of drugs and mixing up his own concoctions of drugs and putting them into capsules and feeding them to my mum as vitamins."
"To see someone so full of life, so full of love just fade away. She died on the 9 April 2023 but she actually died a long time before that."
