Hi, I know you posted about 6 months ago but I’m just now finding this site. My story is very similar. I fought an infected knee replacement for 7 years. On November 11,2017 the infection won. I was taken to my local hospital ER that day having no idea I would not see my house again until July 10,2018! I was told if I was not Life Flighted to another hospital I would die. I ended up having 15 surgeries in a short time span. My left leg was amputated including the hip. I was in a coma type state for about 2 weeks during the process. I ended up with chest tubes and a trach. I was in various hospitals for 5 months then SNF’s for 3. I couldn’t sit up on my own or move my right leg hardly at all in April when I got to the 1st rehab. I was afraid my life would never be the same or even be worth living. I was sent home in June but was not ready so had to go back to rehab after a 4 day stay at home. My home was built in 1900 so hardly ADA ready. When I went to the hospital I was 115 lbs. I am now about 125 missing a leg. I know it doesn’t sound like an issue but it really is. Early on I was so blown up with fluids I looked like the Pillsbury Doughboy! My face and neck look nothing like the old me. The weight gain and my appearance are one of the hardest things I’m dealing with right now. Along with being somewhat dependent on others. I am extremely lucky to be alive and honestly should not have survived. However I did survive and am going to make the most out of the second chance I’ve been given. I got a prosthetic leg yesterday and I’m selling my car and getting a van. I’ve even stared working some from home again. I know this is long but I hope it can help others to realize they can overcome obstacles after surviving sepsis.
