Dr. Osborn said that his daughter had become sick several times over the last few months. Both of his children had had high fevers and vomiting and were put on antibiotics. However, neither of the Osborns were in the country to care for their children at the time of the children's illnesses; the Osborns were in Mexico on a medical mission. “As a doctor, I know how salmonella is contracted. As a parent, it makes me sick to think that while my wife and I were on a medical mission trip to Mexico, my children were at home suffering because of waste-contaminated peanut butter without their parents to comfort them,” Osborn said in a press release. Clay Jenkins, the family's attorney, said he was trouble that the peanut butter salmonella contamination largely affected children, the elderly and the immuno-compromised.
