Summary
They both tested positive for Covid-19 on March 31, but while her husband experienced mild symptoms, Deanna was feverish, coughing and vomiting.Three days later, Deanna was admitted to Michigan Medicine, where she was diagnosed with ischemic colitis, “essentially a dead gut,” said Dr. Philip Choi, a pulmonologist at the hospital.“The condition is caused by reduced blood flow to the colon and for Deanna, the surgeons had to take out her colon,” Choi said.
