I believe the magots really saved her arm and live by eating the rotting inffected flesh. Magots do not attack living flesh. I saw magots bieng used on patients in order to keep infection from spreading on new major surgery.

WHAT AN AMAZING STORY! I MYSELF AM A LAND DWELLER (ALTHOUGH AT TIMES I NEED GROUNDING)...YA KNOW 'IF THE GODS WANTED ME TO FLY I'D HAVE WINGS... SHE CAN THANK THOSE MAGGOTS!!! THEY MOST LIKELY KEPT HER FROM LOSING HER ARM BY EATING AWAY THE INFECTED TISSUE~THEY ARE NOW BEING USED ONCE AGAIN IN MODERN MEDICINE ALONG WITH LEACHES~ IF YOU CAN GET OVER THE 'GROSS' FACTOR, IT THE MOST NATURAL WAY TO HEAL~ LEACHES ATTACHED PROPERLY BRING BACK BLOOD CIRCULATION FOR THOSE WHO HAVE SEVERED 'PARTS' & MAGGOTSFOR THEIR ABILITY TO EAT AWAY DEAD AND INFECTED TISSUE! GOTTA LOVE IT! EVERYONE~~~HAVE A WONDERFUL & SAFE 4TH OF JULY!

Gee, I wonder why? You religious loons have never been known for your logic or reasoning. Seriously, get some professional help.
