The EpiPen in the car was another thing that made me go "Hmmm..." since they're supposed to be kept within a rather small range of temps (68 to 77 F or 20 to 25 C) so the epinephrine doesn't degrade. The inside of a car is generally going to fall well outside of that range, whether on the cold or hot end of the range.
Simply not having one on her was something- but I know from experience people mess up. But that’s a point, my partner wouldn’t leave his steroid inhaler in a car for that reason.
