Jacqueline Baptiste-Savoie - How Quickly Can A Wound Progress?
In this video, Jacqueline Baptiste-Savoie of the Scarborough Health Network tells the story of a young patient of hers who had to get his leg amputated.
This 25-year-old patient decided to deal with a blister he found on his foot on his own. Four weeks passed and his infection got so bad that he lost his leg.
If you’re a patient living with diabetes, do not take wounds lightly. It doesn’t matter how small they are. If you have one, play it safe and get it checked out.
The Scarborough Health Network has sponsored the creation of over a hundred educational videos for type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.

In 2022, this YouTube channel was rebranded as Manitoba Moonshot.
The Manitoba Moonshot is a front-row seat watching one Canadian family trying to end type 2 diabetes.
This channel will highlight stories from the Lautt family, ask tough questions about access to health care for marginalized communities, and feature exclusive interviews with Canadians from all walks of life — especially those living with type 2 diabetes.
