Oh my god. I had sepsis, but luckily they were able to stop it. That pain is absolutely horrific. I went 3 days before I went to the hospital when it got unbearable. I can handle pain. I don't cry or yell when I'm in pain, it's usually just a hiss and a quietly mumbled curse word. Every breath I took was just screaming. If I wasn't screaming, I was vomiting involuntarily. No gagging, no muscle contractions, just vomiting. My muscles gave out after the first 8 hours. The hospital put me in a closed wing because my screams were scaring patients and I was unable to stop despite trying, I felt so bad for being so obnoxious but there was nothing I could do. After all kinds of IVs and painkillers they found the right combination and I began to improve. I remember the second I realized I hadn't screamed in over a minute. I broke into tears. I was so happy for that little bit of relief. The pain was still at a point that I wouldn't even wish it for my worst enemy, but it was better. I could breathe a little easier, I could finally talk to my fiance and thank him for taking care of me and getting me to the ER. I could finally sleep for the first time in days. Apparently it's not possible to sleep while continuously screaming and vomiting, but when you're able to stop Screaming you can fall asleep despitethe pain if you're exhausted enough. By the time it was all done I had 3 different doctors say they couldn't believe I was able to handle 3 days of sepsis with no painkillers before I came in and that after going through this, childbirth woulId be a breeze. I'm definetly getting the pitocin though, screw that lmao. It was horrific, but I was lucky. Stories like hers remind me of that.

I think its beautiful that she did not just give up. As women for many of us we have to already do so much to feel attractive. When what society deems beautiful gets taken away from something so devastating through no fault of your own is another level of trauma that one has to work through. I am glad as she healed and recovered that she also realized how important SHE is to her children, significant other, family and friends. That her children see her has mom the beautiful super hero! Because she definitely is that! And she deserves her flowers! --

She is absolutely beautiful. I am totally straight but Damn! Would definitely do a double take if I saw her somewhere in public.
The photos of her before she lost her limbs - she had a PERFECT body. Not that she doesn't have the perfect body now. Her new body carries with it a life story of pain and uncertainty. But above THAT, it's a life story of overcoming obstacles you'd never DREAM you could overcome. It's a story of bravery and strength and true beauty.

There are so many people who have had this happen with becoming septic. You're beautiful the way you are. My grandfather was blind. He was my hero. I was surprised to hear him called disabled because he and his leader dog did everything except drive.

One minute she says she is not disabled and can do anything everyone else can do and next minute she dont mind being labeled disabled. Sounds to me like she will go on both sides when its to her convenience

Wow. I must be extremely lucky then. I caught sepsis after having surgery on my intestines and I ended up losing 1/2 my colon but I still have all my extremities.

She is really lucky she was able to keep most of her hands/fingers.
Either way, good for her, she's done wonderfully!

She is gorgeous but I really hope that she is being paid extremely well as a model because disability doesn't pay much.
