Chicago attack victim Natasha McShane contracts super-bug

I have followed this sad story from the beginning and contributed toward the charitable fund and all my prayers continue to go to Natasha and her family. May God save and protect her. I wonder if her attackers can be charged with murder if she were to die? Her injuries and subsequent illnesses are certainly related. But my devout prayer is that this point is moot. May Natasha recover from this illness and continue with her recovery.

I am in contact with Natasha's Mother and Father, they are neighbors of mine, I also helped to run the benefit in Chicago and I pray regularly and have done since I can remember. I put in a very worrying day yesterday and so did a lot of other people thinking the worst, until I called my family and also spoke with Natasha's Mother. If caring about people worrying, because of wrong information makes me a bad person, then thats me !!! Joe McShane, from Silverbridge, Co Armagh

Joe so who are you in contact with in Ireland to know the true condition of this young lady? What ever the case she needs our prayers. I know I prayed for her last night, and Im not a really prayerful person. Its sad most of us only reach out to God in times of trouble.

Why don't you remove this story, it worried a lot of people yesterday. She does not have an infection now, that happened back in June. Joe McShane. Chicago

My name is Cindy Reilly and my son Jack Reilly stayed at the RIC in Chicago at the same time as Natasia. Jack and Natasia met each other at RIC and I spoke with her parents who were extremely wonderful caring people. Remember the word BELIEVE which we used for my son Jack who had a brain injury. We are all believing in Natasha and pray that she will fight this infection. Cindy and Jack Reilly Roselle, IL

I would hope the health system can obtain the drug interferon for Natasha. I have seen this used in an expermental setting oncemany years ago,and it was incredable the results. I hope we will all pray for her recovery! After all she has suffered as an innocent person from the animals who attacked her.

Sad, sad news. This young girl has gone through so much.

This is so sad, I thought she improved?
