Tell Me So I Can Understand

If you ever need to explain your Sepsis (Survivor) in 30 seconds, start here.

“I’m a sepsis survivor. My body had an overwhelming response to infection that nearly killed me. Many survivors have lasting fatigue, weakness, brain fog, and depression — it’s called post-sepsis syndrome and it’s real. I wanted you to know because any future infection in me is a higher-stakes situation. If I get a high fever, severe weakness, or confusion, get me to care fast.”
