FLESH EATING DISEASE: Well maybe not so much, but still... this is my second round with cellulitis, which is a blood infection that spreads rapidly and can kill with in a couple hours. The first time I almost died from a cellulitis / lymphangitis infection was in 2004, while skating in Peace Park. My hand got red and swollen and within 45m the swelling reach my armpit. Had I waited another 1/2hr before going to the hospital the infection would have reached my heart where it would have been pumped through out my body, killing me. #Cellulitis #lymphangitis #flesheatingdisease #penicillin #hoteldieu #chum #montreal #nurse #microbiology #peacepark #bloodinfection #surviving #thestreets #skateboarding
