Had a chat with my wife on below. I told her if this happened to me, I'm going to say no. Just shoot me full of morphine. I can't imagine, she is a better person than me.

A Kentucky woman’s life has been changed forever after a procedure to treat her kidney stones meant she had to lose her legs.

Lucinda “Cindy” Mullins, 41, said she received treatment for an infected kidney stone at a local hospital, according to local news station LEX 18.

Things took a turn for the worse when the kidney stone became septic. Mullins was then rushed to a hospital and was sedated for several days. When she woke up, the long-time nurse was informed that she would be losing her limbs.

"I've lost my legs from the knees down bilaterally and I'm going to lose my arms probably below the elbow bilaterally," Mullins told the outlet. "The doctor I used to work with, he kind of was like, 'this is what they had to do to save your life this is what's happened.'"

Despite the outcome, the wife and mother of two said she woke up grateful, saying, "I'm just so happy to be alive. I get to see my kids. I get to see my family. I get to have my time with my husband.”
