A day of fishing in Port St. Joe turned into a nightmare for Ben West and his family when he was struck by a flesh-eating bacteria, Vibrio vulnificus. Within hours, Ben’s leg swelled to four times its normal size, covered in blisters, and his organs began to fail. He’s already undergone two surgeries and faces more ahead. The family’s faith and community support are helping them cope, but this is a stark reminder of the hidden dangers in our local waters. How do you feel about the risks of outdoor activities in our area? #Health #BodyHealth #FloridaNews
