Greg Manteufel loves dogs and had been around eight of them about the time he became ill, according to his wife Dawn Manteufel. It’s not clear which dog was carrying the bacteria.
She told the Post that doctors said her husband’s case was a “crazy fluke.”
Greg Manteufel has been at Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee for about a month. He recently had surgery to remove dead tissue and muscle from his leg amputations. This week, he will have two more surgeries to remove dead tissue, the Post reported.
He may also require nose reconstruction surgery because lack of blood flow caused it to turn black, his wife said.
