An Australian family is opening up about their daughter’s debilitating neurological condition.
Bella Macey, 10, was on a family trip in Fiji when she developed an infection from a blister that caused her foot to become inflamed. She was quickly hospitalized and diagnosed with a rare and painful condition called complex regional pain syndrome.
“It’s all sharp, it’s burning, it’s tingly. It’s all sorts of different pain I never knew was possible,” Bella said in an interview with A Current Affair “I can’t have a shower, I can’t have a bath, I can’t put any sheets or anything on [my leg] … even with a tissue, you can’t touch it with anything, otherwise I will scream.”
