I thought they just charged her with Reckless Conduct (misdemeanor).
This girl impresses the hell out of me:
No pain meds for Aimee Copeland
She's having skin grafts over 'massive' wounds and is relying on meditation, rather than medication, to fight the pain.
She soon became infected with bacteria that causes necrotizing fasciitis, which destroys body tissues. The bacteria’s toxins had already done extensive damage in the days after the accident, forcing doctors in Augusta to amputate Aimee’s left leg at the hip, her right foot and both her hands.
To save the woman’s life, Copeland on Friday revealed surgeons also removed a large area of skin and fascia, which attaches the skin to muscle, from her abdomen, side and hip to keep the bacteria’s toxins from spreading to her muscle. The grafts are being performed to replace the skin that was removed.
She is a survivor.
