SELENA GOMEZ

A recently turned 18+ Selena leaves the 2010 Teen Choice Awards on August 8, 2010 getting in her chauffeured limousine. The first thing she does is 'knock back' a glass of wine, unknown to her the drink has a powerful, fast acting synthetic neurotoxin. Acting within minutes it floods her spinal cord and selectively kills the somatic motor neurons, the vital nerve cells burn out and die ceasing all voluntary muscle movement.

Because they cannot regenerate, the paralysis is permanent! Selena can can still breathe...has a heartbeat, pulse, AND can blink/move her eyes, since the neurotoxin lacked the specific receptors required to affect the singers ocular muscles yet destroyed the rest of her body's motor systems. The toxin hits the most active, finely tuned muscle groups first...her speech and vision.

Her voice slurs as she has trouble forming words becoming barely audible...a whisper at best, then nothing. Swallowing becomes difficult (although that will go away), the eyelids begin to droop, and double vision sets in. Next Selena's facial muscles go completely slack giving her a blank, expressionless look as panic sets in, 'what's happening to me' she thinks.

As the toxin spreads through the actress's bloodstream her arms become limp dead weights spreading to her fingers and toes. Next is her torso, waist, and hips are affected as the 18 year-old slumps against the window...Selena watches the woods passing her as the sun sets.

A freaked out Selena can still hear sounds, feel physical touch or pain, and see whatever is directly in front of her. She feels her legs then toes going numb experiencing intense internal panic, a racing heart, and adrenaline spikes, she's a ragdoll now....helpless and vulnerable!
