In my friend's case it was just a faulty heater in her apartment. The first cold night of the year she turned on the heat, went to bed, and never woke up. I don't know the details beyond that.
We've had detectors ever since. And I usually think about it this time of year.
Condolences
A gas heater I assume?
I assumed that but can't confirm. We had all just graduated the summer prior. She moved out of state and was living in a small apartment. Her family were all overseas. The police contacted us because they couldn't reach her family, so we only got the barest details.
It felt unreal, but it was enough to understand the potential consequences of living in a shitty rental.
Fuck... Sorry to hear that. My arrogant German ass never thought of gas heating when I blurted out how unnecessary CO detectors were...

It was a long time ago. No worries.
