Courtesy Dubois County Visitors Center & Tourism Commission talked to her things were bad. "They took me to another room. The surgeon we met in the ER came in with the ICU doctor. They explained to me what happened. They said as soon as they tried to start surgery, he just coded." In all, he had three heart attacks and coded all three times, which prevented them from being able to do the amputation surgery. But the news was worse. They were in a race against the disease that was attacking his body. They needed to take his leg before it moved into other parts of his body. "It was eating him alive," said Shanon. "We were told to expect the worst." Doctors were eventual- ly able to get him stable enough to remove his leg at the knee, but then they found it had moved above his knee. Before it was all done, he had lost one leg to his knee and the other to his hip. He was in a coma for days. "Within a few days of his last surgery, he started to come around." He was on a venti- lator for weeks. Now nearly six months lat- er, he is still recovering, but is still fighting effects of the disease. It had spread to his fingertips, but she said they have started to improve and while they are damaged, they are hopeful he will not lose them. Shanon and Brian met on- line in 2001 and were even- tually married in 2008. They lived in Pike County for about a year before moving to the Pittsburgh area. They have a seven-year-old daugh- ter, Alysa. Brian just recently was able to come home. Shanon has had to keep working to support the family. She now works mostly nights so she can be around Brian and Alysa. They have applied for So- cial Security disability, but it will be months before he is accepted. In the pres- ent, they have set up a Go Fund Me page to try help meet their expenses. It is at https://dm2.gofund.me/ brian-arensman. Shanon also said any friends who want to send a card to Brian can do so by sending it to: 203 Iola St., Glenshaw, PA 15116. "It is a mean and nasty dis- ease," said Shanon of Necro- tizing Fasciitis. In the near future, Brian is being fitted for prosthetics and hoping his recovery continues. Adipex pill. He said they are schedule II and IV con- trolled substances and Nal- ley admitted she didn't have a prescription for them. Harner was released; how- ever, Nalley was taken to the Pike County Jail. Cpl. Sim- mons said while enroute, he noticed the odor of raw mar- ijuana coming from Nalley. He said Nalley denied hav- ing any illegal substances. At the jail, she was tak- en to the medical room and strip searched by female jail- er Janea Davers. Davers, in a supplemen- tal report, wrote when Nal- ley was taking off her jeans, Davers could hear "the sound of plastic rubbing to- gether." She added that when Nalley handed Davers her jeans, there was a full-sized sandwich bag that con- tained items inside cello- phane. Davers put that bag on a desk and continued the search. Davers said Nalley "lunged for the desk, push- ing me out of the way and grabbed the bag." Both fell to the ground and Nalley threw the bag into the toi- let and tried to flush it twice while Davers was trying to the bag away from Nalley. Davers, in her statement, said the bag was too big to flush and she was able to re- trieve it from the toilet and restrain Nalley. Cpl. Simmons said when police inventoried the con- tents of the plastic bag, they found five bags in side the bigger bag. The white crys- tal substance in all of them field tested positive for meth. Three of the bags had 3.8 grams of meth in them, one 4.2 grams and anoth- er with 23.7 grams of meth in it. Simmons report stat- ed the bags of meth totaled 39.3 grams. They found another bag with 11 blue pills, identified as Clonazepam, and one pill identified as Diazepam. They also found 5.5 grams of marijuana.
