A Drop Of Rain Could Kill Me!

BOURNEMOUTH, UK: Emily Payne, 20, is the girl who has to carry an umbrella with her at all times - as a drop of rain could kill her.

Miss Payne suffers from a condition called Cold Urticaria which means simple things like eating an ice cream, having a bath or swim could kill her - aswell as raindrops falling on her skin.

Miss Payne, who is studying to be a counsellor, said: "Having this condition really does restrict my life.
"Just a drop of water has to touch my skin and its enough to start a reaction. I have to carry an umbrella around with me wherever I go. I'm just grateful I was diagnosed before anything happened to me, and I hope that one day I will grow out of it."

I have it too unfortunately just the other day I went in the pool and I couldn't even enjoy swimming : ( Rain, even a bottle to my arm can effect the area.
