A young model forced to have both her legs amputated due to COVID-19 complications has been released from the hospital just in time for her 21st birthday.

Claire Bridges finally returned to her family home last Wednesday after spending two months at a medical facility in Tampa, Florida.

Bridges, who was born with a congenital heart condition, tested positive for COVID-19 in early January.

Despite being fully vaccinated, the brunette suffered serious symptoms from the virus and was admitted to the hospital on January 16.

On admission, the youngster was diagnosed with COVID-19 myocarditis, cyanotic, acidosis, rhabdomyolysis and mild pneumonia.

Blood flow was restricted to her legs and the damage was serious enough that doctors decided they had no choice but to amputate.
Claire Bridges, 20, had both her legs amputated after suffering complications from COVID-19. The Florida-based model was released from hospital last Thursday following a two-month stay.

Bridges subsequently spent weeks recovering from both COVID and the double amputation.

“I sat up by myself today!! So stoked!” she captioned the post.

Followers have been floored by her resilience, with one admirer writing beneath the snap: “I don’t know you but I have been rooting for you and checking in on your socials for weeks!! You are freaking amazing!! And SO stunning even while in the hospital. Your smile is radiant. Keep going.”

It's unclear whether Bridges plans to pursue modeling once she learns to walk with her prosthetic legs. She is pictured in a professional photo taken last year.

Meanwhile, Bridges’ father, Wayne, told Newsweek he was thrilled that his daughter was able to be home in time for her 21st birthday last weekend.

“She is very happy to be home around family and friends. We had a cookout for her on Saturday, which was her birthday,” he stated.

“It’s been mentally, emotionally taxing but we’re hopeful now. She is still facing more challenges but we are focused on today having her home,” he added. “She’s having ongoing rehab with physical and occupational therapy, and healing of her legs to start getting ready for prosthetics.”

However, Bridges’ father says the fighting spirit his daughter has displayed in the past two months means anything is possible.

“I am so proud of you and inspired by you,” he wrote in a recent Facebook post. “You have overcome more in two months than any of us could imagine in a lifetime. You will be climbing again before you know it.”

A GoFundMe campaign to help with Bridges’ medical care has so far reached nearly $40,000 of its $100,000 target

Covid 19 did that to her?
I can only assume they did not provide fluvoxamine and anti histamine to overcome difficulty in breathing.

Fuck! This is the same situation reported by many vascular surgeons. This type of problem used to affect only those 80+ 90+ years old because the three arteries of the lower leg are the peroneal artery, anterior tibial artery, and posterior tibial artery, get narrow as they aged.

Now these clots are happening to the younger population. FUCK THE COVER-UPs

I reported these medical phenomenons in the past two years.

Spoiler alert... it wasn't the virus. :cool:

One day, when the truth finally comes out, those people who pushed for vaccination will not be able to walk safely on the streets. This is my promise to you. :wink:
