Surviving the Flesh Eating Bacteria: Understanding, Preventing, Treating and Living with the Effects of Necrotizing Fasciitis by Jacqueline A. Roemmele
Two survivors of this 'flesh-eating' bacterium explain this horrific tissue-destroying disease. Known to the medical community as necrotizing fascitis (NF), this infection, commonly caused by Strep A bacteria, is often fatal. Until now, there has been no useful information available to the general public. This is the first comprehensive book geared to survivors of the disease, their families, and anyone wishing to learn more about it.
