Young mum Daneka Altmann drank the lethal poison methanol when she was out on a binge. It was to cost her her life.

Now Daneka's  family want you to see just how she died so it never happens again.

But did she know what she was drinking? Did she know it was methanol?

Donna-Marie Lever was with Daneka about 20 minutes before she slipped into a coma and never woke up.
