Came across this piece of sad and shocking news a few days back. A 20 year old Brazilian model, Mariana Bridi, had her hands and her feet amputated in order to save life. She was initially diagnosed with kidney stones but it turned out that she was infected by a bacteria known as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is known to be drug resistant. The bacteria spread in her veins from head to toe and doctors had no choice but to amputate her hands and feet to save her. I was shocked by the damage the bacteria can do to one's body and felt really sad for her that she lost her limbs. Today, the worst happened. She lost the fight and died. I am not sure if this might be the best outcome for her...I cant imagine how she can live on ..without her limbs. Life is so unpredictable...you can have anything now and then lose everything so quickly. I guess we should treasure whatever we have now as we duno when they will be gone.
