Triple Amputation!!

[Conchonius]

I'm lost for words. Devastating even to hear. Necrotizing fasciitis is an insidious killer, so hard to detect and so fast to advance - it speaks to Brittany's strength of will that she won over it.

I am sure you and your family will pull through. Stay strong, and best of luck in the recovery process.

Wow, what a difficult thing for her and your family to be going through

 

[phreeflow]

Oh my goodness. I’m heartbroken for your family and my prayers go out to you all

 

[Ulu]

Oh My God! What a horrible situation.

Be thankful for your health, folks.
It’s the last thing you want to sacrifice.

Truly horrific; my thoughts and best wishes are with you and yours. Be strong.

Britty is waking up more, and is aware of the physical changes but still has a pretty upbeat attitude, even joking some with friends. We are hopeful that the worst surprises are past.
Thanks to all of you, for your support!!

No, it wasn’t toxic shock syndrome, but similar in multiple ways.
It was fast moving infection by a bacterium that is normally comparatively benign, causing strep throat. Still no answer for how she got it or why.
