Life After MRSA





Cathy Hansbury holds up her son Joe Jr's, 14, shirt to reveal the mark which turned out to be the first signs of MRSA. Hansbury was in the middle of a wrestling match in Jan. '09 when his right strap fell and an official noticed the bump. A few days later, Hansbury was admitted to St. Christopher's Hospital for Children with a fever. He later spent 8 days in intensive care, and 25 days in the hospital. Joe reveals a scar as a result of several surgeries on his leg and shoulder due to osteomyeolitis, an infection of the muscle and bone.
