Summary
A 12-year-old girl, Sophie Lanigan, fought for her life after sepsis struck — leading to the amputation of her hands and feet. Her story reveals how fast sepsis can escalate, with symptoms that often go unnoticed — from slurred speech in adults to cold skin or rapid breathing in kids. With over 11,000 cases in Ireland last year and 20% fatal, health officials warn this is a “silent, devastating threat.” But hope lies in listening — to patients, families, and gut instincts — because early action could save lives.
