Amputation Averted

Cecil, who had a decades-long history of diabetes, had a serious diabetic ulcer on his foot. A small blister had progressed to a gaping, gangrenous ulcer, and his doctors back home had amputated all the toes on his right foot in an effort to curb the spreading infection. Two months later, despite intensive, expensive wound care, it still hadn’t healed, and Cecil was looking at a leg amputation.

The thought of total amputation was devastating. Then a friend at church mentioned the Whitaker Wellness Institute, and he came to see us as a last resort. After only four days of treatment with hyperbaric oxygen therapy and sugar dressings, the open, oozing sores on Cecil’s foot began to close. Within a week, he was well on his way to recovery. And today, his wounds are completely healed.
