Back in January of 2017 I went to bed one night. Woke up that morning shaking uncontrollably. I went to the first hospital around 10 am. Left there around 10 pm to get home for 15 minutes. I sat down on the couch and couldn’t get up, couldn’t walk.

My family rushed me to another hospital, I ended up having a fever induced seizure on the way to the hospital. Once I got to the hospital they did a bunch of tests, they even did a spinal tap. Which is what lead the doctor into getting extremely concerned because I didn’t even flinch, nothing. Well after spending 24 hrs in the hospital, they called my family in because I wasn’t showing signs of improvement and the sepsis had created issues with my kidneys, and they didn’t think I was going to pull through. I was in the hospital for a good amount of time.. finally made it home. I had surgery to replace some tendons and developed sepsis after, and the doctors think that’s what caused the sepsis. (Sepsis and Surgery) Ended up back in the hospital because my kidneys were still messed up. To this day I still feel the effect of it. I get days where I have no energy what so ever. (Post-Sepsis Syndrome) I get days where my kidneys hurt so bad.
