20-year-old Mariana Bridi da Costa, is a Brazilian model who's beauty opened the way for her to become a beauty queen.
Mariana, who was twice a finalist in the Brazilian stage of the Miss World pageant, and who was also a finalist to represent Brazil in the Miss World contest, fell ill back in December and was misdiagnosed for having kidney stones!
Mariana actually suffered from a urinary infection that got complicated and turned into a serious case of septicaemia; where the flow of blood, thus oxygen, to her limbs was reduced.
Mariana's hands and feet had to be amputated and was until last night clinging to life.
Unfortunately, her condition deteriorated over night and she lost her struggle and died.


allah yirhama , i feel sorry for her and she is pretty by the way!
I feel sorry for her and for her family
Even if she did make it and they had to amputate her arms and legs would be devastating for a beauty queen like her but im sure she would be strong enough and move on with life , we had a beauty queen in our class at school and during chemistry lab class , test tube containing acid fell on the ground and broke and acid sprayed on her leg and it is scarred now , but she still managed to keep her spirits up and still participates in pageants :)
Oh God! pls. make her easy in heaven, myself and my family are so sorry for this shocking news that, whe passed way in her early age with so much desire left behid in this earth. lord Christ will bring her to his place to make her easy and rest.
Oh God, we in Nepal a lots people including my family and friends are so sorry with is News, it shocked me when I read this news and saw in TV.
Lord Christ pls. give her spirit rest and eazy way in Heaven. "Amen"
God bless her soul :(
May she rest in peace. This is god's will. There's nothing we can do except to say god bless her soul. I hope her family will cope with this unfortunate and difficult time. I know it is very tough to lose someone that is special and especially someone who is young and has his life ahead of him. May she rest in peace.
Poor little thing .. May god bless her soul :(
