Outstanding Article — Georgia Writer’s Battle With Deadly Superbug — Clostridium difficile

http://specials.myajc.com/fixing-to-die/

We do not usually share articles written focused on C. diffiicle infections, however; this piece is outstanding.

It tells a story of a man – acquiring C. difficile – a fight for his life.

How many of you can relate to this scenario?

YES — we know YOU CAN!

There will be parts of this article that will pull at your own heart strings, your memories will swing back through the closed door of this painful time in your life, and this man on the mend will one day stand shoulder to shoulder with the many of us — a C. diff. Survivor.

We send out our sincere get-well wishes to this patient recovering from all he has endured (C. difficile, Sepsis + more) and let us all keep him and all of us in our thoughts with good wishes and support.

It is a heartbreaking journey, one that no one should have to endure and behalf of the C Diff Foundation we thank Deborah for sharing this video to share with the general public.

Deborah, an active Volunteer Advocate for the C Diff Foundation,  has raised C. diff. awareness through attending and participating at public healthcare events, and through avenues carved by her efforts and participation and we commend her for never giving up and for fighting her way through these catastrophic illnesses.

Thank you Deborah for your video, and forming another way to Raise C. diff. Awareness, along with awareness of  Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome, and for sharing your story with the world.
