Padre de familia sufre múltiples amputaciones luego de una visita al dentista

Summary: Davon Vanterpool, a 34-year-old father of two, went to the dentist for a normal checkup. His gums were swollen and bled a little during the exam. Soon after going home, he got very sick. Bacteria from his gums entered his blood, causing a deadly infection called sepsis. He suffered a heart attack and was put on life support. To save his life, doctors had to amputate both of his legs, his left forearm, and his right hand. His family is now raising money online to help with his recovery and adapt their home.
