Amy Kennedy

Survivor

I became ill with a cold and flu-like symptoms. After several visits to my PCP and the ER, I was still ill. Long story short, I ended up in ICU for 3 months due to septic shock. I came very close to passing away three times. It is literally a miracle that I am alive today. I had to learn to do everything all over again.

My life has forever changed from my illness. It’s been a tremendous amount of hard work to recover. People cannot possibly understand what a person goes through unless you are right there with them. I thank God every day for my husband, my daughter and the most supportive friend group I’ve ever seen.
