Renee explained on Facebook that she didn't give picking up the note a second thought, just as her husband came out of the toilet. then handed him the baby and ran to the bathroom.
"I throw the dollar in my pocket, hand him the baby, run to the bathroom," she said on Facebook.
"I wash my hands and I don’t dry them all the way.
"I go out to meet them and start to walk to the car a minute or so later."
She added: "Meanwhile, I did grab the dollar out of my pocket, held it and then put it in my car door.
"As I did that I told my husband how lucky I was to find a random dollar.
"Then I grabbed a wipe to wipe off my hands because I remembered him telling me not to pick up money off the ground as people have been putting it in fentanyl."
"As he began to somewhat lecture me It hit me like a ton of bricks.
"All of a sudden I felt it start in my shoulders and the feeling was quickly going down my body and it would not stop. I said, 'Justin, please help me. I'm not kidding I feel really funny'.
"I grab his arm not thinking and then my body went completely numb, I could barely talk and I could barely breath.
"I was fighting to stay awake as Justin was screaming at me to stay awake and trying to talk to 911 and find the closest Fire Station or Hospital."

"Either way, this is absolutely real and sad," she added.
