Their toxicology reports, as reviewed by Cowboy State Daily, shows that the children who died at the scene had ‘unusual large amounts of Propanolol – beta-blocker – and Diphenhydramine – antihistamine which causes drowsiness – in their systems.’
Diphenhydramine can be found in drugs like Benadryl.
Propranolol is a beta-blocker that can be prescribed to help treat ailments such as blood pressure, chest pain, migraines, and tremors.
While there is no confirmation as to why the girls were on the medications, Cliff, Harshman’s husband told Cowboy State Daily that his wife’s medical treatments were her last hope to get better, after dealing with PTSD, depression and other challenges.
“I’m bitter that this has had to continue to be a thorn in my side, when I need to just… grieve my family’s loss,” Cliff said regarding the questions he has been asked. “I also want people to understand that this isn’t a chance to demonize different therapies. This works for a lot of different people.
“This was her last grasp at the rope, if you will, to hang on.”
A GoFundMe page has been set up for Cliff, and he has since spoken out about the horrific situation, telling Cowboy State Daily that his wife ‘is not a monster’.
He said she had been receiving treatment for mental health issues, which included postpartum depression.
He said: “My wife is not a monster. Most people don’t understand how that affects the brain. It’s a chemical imbalance … And it can be exacerbated by trying to fix it with medication.”
