E-coli Story

I want to share a story with you guys. A couple of years ago my sister got very sick and we had no idea why, later we come to find out that she had e-coli. The doctors decided that she got it from an animal, the strange part was that she didn't eat any meat that day. But what she did do was go into the petting zoo and played with some of the animals. Luckily her immune system was strong enough to keep her alive, but for a month or so she was stuck in the hospital with this terrible disease. All of her inside organs started to become weak and she lost several pounds due to the lack of food she was consuming. For awhile after that we had to help her out with simple tasks until she was then again able to do them on her own. I am sharing this with you because it is heavily related to the subject we have been discussing in class and it is a scary thing that I have witnessed and I don't want anyone else to have to go through what she went through. So be careful of what you touch and what you eat and be aware of the meats that you are putting into your bodies. Save your health.
