A woman from Georgia was doing a zip line and had an accident out there. She is not fight for her life because she got a flesh eating virus. She is only 24 years old and might have to lose her leg. There was a homemade zip line on May first while they were kayaking in Carrollton, Georgia. The line broke and she cut a gash in her left calf and that gave her the life-threatening infection in her abdomen and her left leg. "It's a miracle she made it past Friday night," Copeland's father, Andy, told ABC affiliate WSBTV. Copeland has necrotizing fasciitis from Aeromonas hydrophila, a bacteria found in fresh water, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. The bacteria could have come from the creek where Copeland was kayaking, and invaded her body through the gash on her leg. I think this is so sad because she is only 24 years old. She never thought that anything like this would happen to her.
