Holy CRAP. We’d like to think that things like this never happen, but unfortunately they do! In Florida, a woman loses her arms and legs due to a misdiagnosis. Yes.. this is a TRUE story!

Lisa Strong has had problems with kidney stones before, but when her constant back pain wouldn’t go away, the doctor’s told her they needed to amputate her legs below the knees. Days later, she was told her arms, below the elbows, had to go, making her a a quadruple amputee.

Strong said, “I figured if I exercised, moved around, I could get the circulation back. But it’s like frostbite,” she said. “My fingers turned black. My toes and the bottoms of my feet turned black. My fingers started to curl. It looked like I had held them in a fire, like they were charred.”

Within a month and three days, her legs and arms were both gone.

Stories like this are SO sad! It’s not like she went in for plastic surgery and got a botched liposuction, she went in for legitimate pains and was misdisagnosed.
