The message
from "Mary Fisher" contains these words:

The Warfarin tends to prevent the blood clotting, and the passage of
food down the gut abrades the villi (a design feature to allow

nutrients
to be absorbed through the walls of the blood vessels) and the animal
loses blood internally, and weakens and dies. There is no pain

involved.

How do you know?


Plenty of people have died, or been poisoned as a result of ingesting
Warfarin, and they have been able to describe the effects.


Good Heavens!

Voices from the dead!

Indeed, it is used in medicine in small doses to thin the blood in
certain conditions. My mother took it after having a stroke.


You don't say.
