Even if it was poisoness, as long as you didn't eat the mushroom you are perfectly fine. You're headache is possibly from from the scare of being unsure if you were poisoned, or maybe it's something completely unrelated like dehydration or diet Just relax (:

Yea 
You can even eat very small amounts of the deadliest mushrooms and be okay. Like a very very small amount. It isn't recommended but yea. Touching mushrooms won't do anything.

so is she dying also?

The human body is a self correcting system.
Some people can ingest far more concentrated toxins and be okay. There is a guy who lets snakes bite him in hopes to one become fully resistant to the poison(s) so doctors can use his dna to make more potent anti-venoms.
Soldiers are exposed to tear gas and even anthrax as well.

I wouldn't go that far. Ingesting neurotoxins (also toxic to other organs!) like snake venom is almost never good IMO. I think the guy you are talking about said he injected antivenom beforehand anyway, and since this is from from a controlled study I'm skeptical of how anyone could benefit from this "research". In any case he is kinda crazy if he thinks that will change his DNA. The human body actually has a long list of requirements to maintain homeostasis. It isn't what I would call "self-correcting" as much as it is adapted for the specific environment present in temperate areas on the surface of this planet. Within those boundaries we have a bit of wiggle room, but it is not safe to say that all stressors make you stronger. Some of them can handicap you, and some can certainly kill you.
As far as I know the only thing you'd really have to worry about being absorbed through your skin is refined chemical salts which are toxic and things like that. There's some things in nature that can fuck you up a bit with just a touch, but mushrooms aren't one of them. Just don't eat unindentified mushrooms if there is any shred of doubt and you'll be ok.
