Birgit Dressel
Birgit Dressel (b. May 4, 1960 in Bremen — d. April 10, 1987 in Mainz) was a West German heptathlete. Dressel participated in the 1984 Olympic hepthathlon, where she ended ninth,〔(Olympic Games, Los Angeles, July-August 1984, Women's heptathlon )〕 and was fourth in the 1986 European Championships. She died at age 26 due to sudden multiple organ failure, which was at least partly triggered by long-term steroid abuse.〔(Zum Gedenken an den frühen Tod einer Aktivensprecherin im adh )〕〔( Eine Erinnerung an den tragischen Fall Birgit Dressel )〕
==Death==
According to TIME magazine, Dressel had a very laissez-faire attitude about medication: she stocked large amounts of medicines, and when her mother asked her about it, she said: "These are all harmless drugs. All athletes take them. It's really nothing special."〔(Time: An Athlete Dying Young )〕 On April 1987, Dressel's condition rapidly declined. She had taken over 100 medications in the last few months, among them steroids.〔 After taking additional medication to relieve back pain, her body went into allergic-toxic shock on April 8, causing rapid multiple organ failure. Due to consistent overmedication, her nerves were so damaged that painkillers were useless.〔 After three days of agony, Dressel died on April 10. An autopsy revealed traces of 101 different medications in her body.〔(Vor 20 Jahren: Der "Fall Dressel" erschüttert den Sport )〕
