A 61-year-old military veteran named Roseanne Milburn from Manitoba is facing the possibility of losing her leg due to a post-surgery infection. She underwent knee replacement surgery, which led to an infection and required follow-up surgery. However, due to a lack of available beds at Health Sciences Centre, she experienced a significant delay in receiving the necessary treatment. As a result, her leg was left untreated for days, leading to the need for amputation. Milburn and her husband expressed frustration and disappointment with the healthcare system’s handling of her case. Shared Health issued an apology for the situation but could not comment on her specific care due to privacy laws. Milburn feels she has no choice but to undergo the amputation to remove the infection. Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara acknowledged the failures in the system and expressed a commitment to addressing the issues. Despite the impending life-changing surgery, Milburn remains hopeful for a prosthetic and a return to her normal activities.
