The girl suffered from peanut allergy. 14-year-old Emma Sloan from Dublin, Ireland, died after a chemist refused to give her mother an emergency anti-allergy drug that could have saved her from an allergic reaction to peanuts.

The family was enjoying their lunch at a local Chinese restaurant and the girl had ordered a curry. However, one of the curry’s ingredients was peanuts.
