Medical Mysteries: Trisha Zemba

On December 24, 1993 (Christmas Eve) 14-year-old Trisha Zemba was riding her horse in Arizona. She would fall off the horse and no one realized how serious her injuries were. Ten days later she would pass out in the bathtub. She was engulfed in pain and had difficulty moving. Her parents would take her to the hospital where she would be given a large amount of morphine. This however did not relieve her pain and it was found that she had a rare and usually incurable nerve disorder called Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. This was the cause of her extreme pain which was especially bad in her legs. She would be given several injections of pain-killing drugs in her spinal column, but they didn't help.

Parents and Doctors were worried for Trisha and feared he would worsen leading her to be institutionalized. Her parents would be told that most patients with RSD live extremly difficult lives and most die, commit suicide, or go insane due to the pain. Trisha's once bright future did not look so bright, but they could only hope that it would get better and pray. 

Doctors would recomend a surgery ussualy done for terminal caner patients in which a morphine pump would be implanted in her body. Her friends and family would continue to pray that she would get better, but then on March 11, 1994 just a day before surgery a miracle happened. 

Within minute Trisha's pain disappeared and she could get up and walk to the hallway. It seemed as if she had fully recovered, but there was no explanation for it. 

Trisha and her family believe it was due to the infinite power of faith.
