My Wife is Rotting

 

- Inner Space - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (episode intro)


CASE 1

- Sunrise Gtr Drums - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams [Ah2 Music] (Monroe, Louisiana/Samantha Gandy is a single mother to a 2-year-old girl named Audrey)

- Follow the Rainbow - Tom Quick [Audio Network] (as a single part, Samantha is grateful for the support of her parents, Jeri and James, who live close by)

- Aftereffect - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (January 2016 -- the entire Gandy family is on an 11-day cruise of the Caribbean)

- Tension - Bob Bradley [Audio Network] ("But the family's dream vacation is about to become a living nightmare.")

- Pick and Choose - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (on the last night of the cruise, Samantha wakes up to a loud sucking noise)

- Anxious - Duncan Pittock [Audio Network] (Samantha sees Audrey rocking back and forth with ther eyes half-closed)

- Approaching Cygnus - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (Samantha calls her mother for help)

- ? (Samantha and Jeri take Audrey to the ship's nurse, who thinks she just has a fever)

- ? (Samantha demands the nurse wake up the ship's doctor)

- Bottom Dweller - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams [Ah2 Music] (the nurse finally agrees to wake up the doctor, and a few minutes later, he arrives/the doctor believes Audrey has been having febrile seizures)

- ? (explanation of febrile seizures)

- ? (doctor places Audrey on a drip to rehydrate her, and an hour later, she appears to improve)

- ? (the next morning, the family disembarks the ship in Puerto Rico)

- Total Panic - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Miles Hankins [Ah2 Music] (Audrey begins to projectile vomit)

- ? (family rushes Audrey to the nearest hospital)

- ? (local doctor takes a blood sample, which reveals Audrey's liver and kidneys are failing)

- A Waiting Game 3 - Jody Jenkins [Audio Network] (the doctor suspects Audrey has some sort of intoxication, so he gives her an enema to help her go to the bathroom)

- ? (a half hour later, Audrey has a bowel movement, and Samantha notices a little red and shiny particle in her feces)

- ? (it's not blood)

- ? (doctor takes the mysterious red object for testing)

- Hardened Criminal - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (doctor returns with the results)

- ? ("2-year-old Audrey Gandy is gravely ill in a hospital in Puerto Rico, and a foreign object in her stool sample could explain why.")

- ? (Audrey diagnosed with abrin toxin poisoning)

- ? ("I don't even know the feelings that I had other than just absolute terror.")

- ? ("Abrin has no known antidote.")

- ? (doctor explains to Samantha all he can do is keep her as comfortable as possible while they wait)

- ? (the family is left to wonder how Audrey got poisoned in the first place)

- Circling Menace - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (the abrin toxin is found in the seeds of the rosary pea plant, which in some cultures is used to make jewelry/a hard outer shell encases the toxin, so if the seed is swallowed whole, it will probably trigger no more than a stomachache, but if the seed's casing is compromised, the toxin can seep into the digestive system and cause far worse consequences)

- Strategic Device - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (Samantha remembers a woman giving Audrey a brown and red necklace during a stopover in Jamaica)

- ? (Audrey likely ingested a seed when the necklace broke, and because a drill was used to attach the seeds to the necklace, it allowed the toxin to seep out and poison her)

- ? (a little over 24 hours after ingesting the seed, Audrey is barely clinging to life)

- Lateral Motion No Str - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (but finally, after 10 more hours, Audrey begins to recover)

- ? (today, Audrey has made a full recovery)

- ? (what to do if someone has ingested abrin)

- Creepy Feeling Str - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Jonathon Beers [Ah2 Music] ("Some life-threatening diseases are triggered by things we eat...but other terrifying conditions start with little more than a gulp of air.")

- Enter the Catacombs - Ron Riddle [KPM Music] (Kyleigh starts to develop a pain in her pelvic area and abdomen, but assumes it's just her period happening)

- ? (but the next morning, Kyleigh notices her abdomen is starting to get bigger)

- Avoiding Detection - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (briefly plays in between the previous and next track)

- ? (Kyleigh returns home to Vandi, who helps her undress)

- Alien Invader - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (Vandi notices a rash on Kyleigh)

- Inner Space - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (Vandi takes Kyleigh to the nearest emergency room, where doctors carry out a full-body exam)

- ? (doctors order a biopsy on Kyleigh's rash, but it comes up negative)

- Time Passes - Barrie Gledden, Steve Dymond, Jason Pedder [Audio Network] (doctors prepare Kyleigh for a colonoscopy)

- ? (over the next two weeks, doctors perform a variety of tests on Kyleigh, but none of them reveal an answer)

- Awareness - Igor Dvorkin, Duncan Pittock [Audio Network] ("It was a scary experience to see Kyleigh completely helpless...emotionally beaten down.")

- Undisclosed Location - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (on the third week, doctors perform an ultrasound on Kyleigh's abdomen, which reveals a buildup of fluid/doctors extract the fluid via a needle for testing)

- Rises and Swells - Igor Dvorkin, Duncan Pittock, Ellie Kidd [Audio Network] (a few days later, the results come back)

- ? (valley fever)

- Listed Seveso - Jean-Philippe Dutheil [Cezame Music Agency] (briefly plays upon the shot of the "VALLEY FEVER" text)

- ? ("Dr. John Galgiani has studied valley fever for the past three decades, and knows the risks associated with the disease.")

- Alien Invader - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] (doctors explain to Kyleigh that spores of the coccidioides immitis fungus have infected her pelvic cavity, has spread to her skin, and has even spread to her brain, leading to valley fever meningitis)

- ? ("It's really the worst complication untreated.")

- ? (briefly plays before commercial break)

- Lost Oracle - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Kenneth Eberhard [Ah2 Music] ("Kyleigh Cooyar has just been diagnosed with valley fever."/Kyleigh placed on a powerful anti-fungal medication)

- ? (after a week taking the medication, Kyleigh is well enough to go home)

- ? (over several months, Kyleigh slowly regains her strength, but tries to figure out how she became infected in the first place/the coccidioides immitis fungus is found in the dry, desert soils of the southwestern United States as well as parts of Central and South America, and can infect people when they are inhaled into the lungs)

- ? (Kyleigh believes she became infected with valley fever during a family trip in Central California, where she was travelling through the San Joaquin Valley, the area where the disease was first identified)

- Sunrise Gtr Drums - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams [Ah2 Music] (today, Kyleigh has undergone multiple hospitalizations to treat her illness, but her health has dramatically improved -- however, to prevent the infection from returning, she'll have to take a milder form of the antifungal medication for the rest of her life)

- ? (how to reduce the risk of contracting valley fever)

- Creepy Feeling Str - Jeffrey Lippencott, Mark Williams, Jonathon Beers [Ah2 Music] ("Dangerous fungal spores lie and wait in dust and dirt...but that's not the only horror that lurks in the ground.")
