A family's dream holiday in Fiji turned into a nightmare when their 10-year-old girl developed a rare infection between the toes of her right foot after getting a blister from her flip-flops.
Australian Bella, 10, got a normal blister after a day at the beach and the minor injury seemed harmless, but now she is mainly bedridden and sometimes using a wheelchair to get around.
“We treated the infection but what we noticed is the foot swelled up and went really red, it was really obvious that something else was going on,” Emma told 7NEWS.com.au.
