Ginny's Video: Staph infection from a broken ankle

She's walking again, 28 surgeries later. See Ginny's short video.



Ginny is a member of the Consumer Health Quality Council of Health Care for All. She told her story of a broken ankle, the staph infection, leg amputation, brain aneurysm and her recovery to the filmmakers Madhavi Bezwada, Meredith Mueller, and Hsiang-Yin Yeh of the Boston University of Public Health.

Advice: Please share her story widely.
