Default Lillys and E coli

The wife was in hospital 8 times last year with E-coli UTI going back
into hospital anything from 4 days to around 5 weeks after coming out.
Every time she had lilly flowers near her chair at home, the last time
we decided not to have lilies in the house as they seemed to be bringing
bad luck. so when she came out in early Dec. no more lollies, this time
it was 13 weeks before she was re admitted with the same infection.
Now I am wondering if this is pure coincidence or is there some link
between lilly flowers and the recurring E-coli infections, knowing that
lilly pollen is deadly to cats.
I'm not saying it has caused the infection but wonder if it is
aggravating the underlying residual problem.
Comments please.
