Mariana Bridi da Costa, the Brazilian model who had to have her hands and feet amputated after contracting a severe urinary infection, has died.  She was 20 years old.

Health officials said in a statement that Mariana Bridi’s condition deteriorated overnight and she died early this morning.

The Espirito Santo State Health Secretariat said in the statement she died from complications related to a generalised infection, Associated Press has reported.

It was caused by the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is known to be resistant to several kinds of antibiotics.

Bridi had been in the hospital in the city of Serra in south-eastern Brazil since January 3.

So sad!  We were really rooting for her.  She was a truly beautiful young woman. You can see more photos of  Mariana here.
