In high school Angie could bench press over 300 pounds, but she now suffers from a number of ailments including lymphedema, which causes fluid to pool in her abdomen and legs, creating areas of her body that are difficult to keep clean, and cellulitis, a bacterial infection that has created large open wounds on her legs. Her hand was burned in a house fire three years ago. Skin grafts used to cover the open sores on her legs have helped as she slowly works toward recovery from the cellulitis. Her mobility has declined, however, as a result of the weight gain and pain associated with the lymphedema. <img src='http://s3.amazonaws.com/lightstalkers/images/80577/WB-Angie-07-ab_small.jpg' /><br />Angie Ashworth, 28, makes herself breakfast in the apartment that is attached to her mother's home where she lives in Fort Pierce, FL.
