A Texas student’s fight for life after a sudden, devastating illness is now the heart of a new Lifetime movie, Pretty Hurts. Jamie Schanbaum, once a UT freshman, went from flu-like symptoms to battling meningococcal meningitis and sepsis, losing her legs and fingers but never her determination. Her story, now streaming on Amazon Prime and starring Haylie Duff, highlights not just survival but the power of community, awareness, and vaccination. Jamie’s experience even inspired a Texas law to protect future students. How do stories like Jamie’s change the way we think about health and resilience in our own lives? #Entertainment #Movies #Austin
