COVID-19 patient recovers after multiple amputations

64-year-old Mark Torregosa contracted the coronavirus earlier this year and faced complications that led to four amputations. He has turned one of the greatest challenges in his life into a positive as he learns to adapt to a new way of living. Meg Oliver reports.

Wow! What an amazing person, I wish him and his family the best.

This needs to be national news

[@gabbyjay6372]

If he was black, it would be racist if it’s not national news..

[@oliviagreen8853]

Heartbreaking and inspirational, love his positive attitude and glad he made it through!

[@bolotabr12]

God bless his family.

[@jessicasmith7102]

Yes, indeed.

[@omadjourney]

Most people never run far enough on their first wind to discover their second,so glad he did.

I am so happy for this man and his family, that he survived. It's telling how terrible 2020 has been when a "feel good" story involves a person surviving with quadruple amputations.

[@jessicasmith7102]

Life is precious and mysterious.

[@LemmyCaution66]

Amazing person... I could not be as strong as this man. ❤️

17, 182 evictions last week. Thank you so much to the House and Senate.

[@AnnLeiSoCal]

And thousands infected last week due to ignorance. Plus thousands of our healthcare workers who must risks their lives to care for ppl who did not listen, did not read and research, did not follow safety protocols.

[@AnnLeiSoCal]

Let's hope funding gets to ppl and fast.

Did he take the vaccine? Because this happened to jummai nache after she received her vaccine.

[@RasheedAmirX]

So uh, can we get an update? How are they doing now?

[@merriemelodiesfan7425]

Seeing is believing with people nowadays. The only way to get through to these skeptics is to keep showing these so much so until they relent and dispel these political conspiracy myths.

[@mariotrance6379]

tears of joy

[@jessicasmith7102]

He survived.

[@spignetti]

diabetes..PVD....Covid related...? im not so sure......What they don't say is the Filipino population has and is at high risk for cardio vascular, heart failure and diabetes...Very high risk....

[@dsplz7274]

how many boosters???

[@laurasmith3496]

Didn’t realise the human body could heal that quickly tbh. I’ve know people who have had amputations and they had a lot of problems during the healing process. Yes everyone’s different but his wounds have certainly healed quick, especially being able to use false legs so quickly too.

[@hoppinhoudini]

He being in Karote for years probably helped promote the healing process.

[@chrismacdonald8014]

Super safe and effective 👌

[@robertgodlewski8553]

Please post this person's entire health history. Yes I'm aware of HIPPA, but if you're going to sensationalize a story I think you owe it to the public to show the entire truth.

[@joelsilva4765]

MABUHAY!!!!!

We Have to protect each other now. Our actions only thing that we have control over. Do the right thing 🙏🏼
