Sheila was just 26 when she contracted meningococcemia. She was in coma for 8 days but survived. She regained her strength but her limbs remained black and lifeless. Barely a month later, she had to make the most difficult decision in her life - face amputation of her limbs or die from the infection. This is her story.

STUMPS R US
In May 2010, I sent an article about Sheila and a few photos to Stumps R Us, a support group for amputees all over the world. They will publish it in their next Gimpy newsletter, probably sometime in July. Watch out for it!
