She survived the accident, but was told that she would need to have her arm amputated.
Cantu told Barcroft Media: “When I arrived at the hospital, the surgeon came up to me and said that he had looked at everything and the arm needed to come off. I had a moment, but then I said alright – if it’s going to save my life, take it off."
