Sandra Bouchalkia

Tribute

I am a grieving mum who lost her princess because of sepsis and want to raise awareness about this silent killer unknown to most people.
My starting point will be my daughter’s story.
Sandra, my beautiful baby, was a healthy and happy girl who never had health problems or a history of any serious illness. She was almost 4 years old when sepsis hit her body and took her life.

It started with a fever and normal flu, nothing to worry about. (Sepsis and Influenza) After one day, the infection invaded her whole body and she passed away because of the non-identification of the symptoms in an early stage. We lost her in a limited frame of time. It started with “Nothing to worry about” and ended up with “Sorry, we couldn’t save her life”. Sandra is gone but I don’t want to see other angels leave this world because of sepsis. I don’t want other mums to go through this tough journey.
This action will honor my daughter and give purpose to my present and future.
Help me raise awareness by sharing our story. When sharing is equal to saving lives, I will do it until the last day of my life.
❤️Sandra’s Hope❤️
