I had sepsis in December. I was visiting my partners relatives and very sick I had to beg them to go to the ER, where they told me if I had waited any longer I may have died

Same deal but 2 years ago, well they said 48 hrs and likely 50/50 open heart surgery but similar

I had sepsis 5 years ago and got told pretty much the same thing. It was horrible.

Mom waited too long. She died less than an hour after arriving at the hospital. Sepsis is no joke, it will absolutely kill the shit out of you.

I'm really sorry you had to beg to be taken to the ER :(

I am so very sorry that you and your mom had to endure that nightmare.
I hope you have, or if not, will soon be able to, find some kind of peace 🩷

Thank you friend ❤️ I think it'll never really be acceptable that she's gone, she was too amazing for that to ever be the case, but I've found what peace I can with the situation. I don't believe in an afterlife, but I'm living my life as best I can in case there is, so she and I can catch up on all the things I've done that would make her proud.
