Mother of 3 Dies 2 Years After Drinking Tainted Margarita

Mother of 3 Dies 2 Years After Drinking Tainted Margarita-

A third-grade teacher and mom of three died two years after being served a cocktail containing industrial cleaner that left a hole in her esophagus on a date with her husband — and Oklahoma authorities are investigating, as per a NY Post report.

Holly Hill, 30, said her mouth was “on fire” and she immediately “started throwing up” after being served a margarita at a Mexican restaurant in Elgin on Valentine’s Day 2023, her mother, Kelly Hunter, told News 9.

“Her mouth was on fire, and she knew something wasn’t right,” Hunter said.

“She immediately jumped up and ran to the bathroom, started throwing up, started rinsing her mouth out with water,” she recalled.

The educator died on Thursday, from what her family said were complications related to the horrifying incident at Hacienda Las Margaritas Bar & Grill.
Hill reached a confidential settlement with the restaurant after suing them over her ongoing health complications, News 9 reported.

Days before her death, Hill had another procedure, in which doctors found that the “hole in her esophagus wasn’t healed but it was a bit better and not as inflamed, so they were able to call in a pulmonologist to assist in stitching it up,” her mother wrote on social media.

“She will have to continue tube feeds for a while longer. She will have to come back in a few weeks for a swallow study with contrast to check on progress.”

“For the past two and a half years, while continuing to teach and care for her family, Holly faced a long and difficult medical journey,” Hill’s obituary read.
