A Vietnam vet stricken with cancer was overrun by ants and bitten more than 100 times days before he died at a VA hospital in Atlanta, his daughter said.
Laquna Ross noticed the scores of red bite marks and swelling when she visited her Air Force veteran dad Joel Marrable at the Eagle's Nest Community Living Center inside the Atlanta VA Medical Center Sept. 6, she told the Daily News.
She had just returned from a trip and hadn't seen her dad in 11 days.
"When I took his hand out, it was really swollen, and he flinched," she said. "I was really worried and asked a staffer if she could come take a look."
