September 2017 I went to the hospital thinking I was sick with the flu. I ended being hospitalized for 2 weeks. I had both gallstones and mono at the same time. (Sepsis and Gallstones, Sepsis and Viral Infections) The doctors didn’t realize this so I ended up with sepsis.

I had 3 surgeries and was on a breathing tube twice. At one point the doctors told my family to start saying their goodbyes. Luckily the doctors finally figured out that I had those two things and were able to treat me correctly and save my life. I’m so thankful to be alive today to tell my story.
