A man who lost all of his limbs after he contracted a life-threatening disease from dirty water says the hardest part is not being able to hug his girlfriend.
Andrew Case, 34, a wind turbine technician from Houston, Texas, has suffered all his life after being diagnosed with a rare white blood cell immune deficiency at birth.
But last year, his health took a turn for the worst when he contracted necrotising fasciitis - a flesh eating disease - and was told that he needed all his limbs amputated to prevent wet gangrene - which causes tissues in the body to break down and results in death.
