Hello Everbody,
My name is Chrissie I am 55 years young.
I have just recently had my left leg amputated below the knee. This happened because I had an infection in my foot and it spread up my leg as I had sepsis.
I look forward to conversing with you all

Hi @Chrissie27 welcome to the community, sepsis seems to be in the media a lot more recently which is so important to raise awareness!
How are you getting on after your operation?
