A VICTORIAN woman who beat a rare flesh-eating disease says she survived the terrifying ordeal only because she was "fat".…
Clair Robinson, 23, is lucky to be alive after contracting the killer bacteria following surgery at a regional hospital.
The shop assistant thought she had a fever and stomach ache until she was told the life-threatening condition was eating through her stomach muscles and body tissue.
"Being big saved my life," she said.
"If I had have been smaller it would have eaten my organs and my insides. My kidneys and liver would have been eaten if I hadn't have been big.
"Maybe fat people do have a good life after all."
Her fiance Ashley Bacon proposed on a recent trip to Venice and they plan to marry on Valentine's Day.—Being fat beat flesh-eating disease, Victoria Herald-Sun

FOLLOWUP:
The more I think about it, it's definitely funny. I mean — inadvertently brilliant!
The Ad Council should pick it up as a PSA:
