An 11-year-old boy nearly died after a chest infection caused rare meningitis and sepsis, leaving him with lasting disabilities.
An 11-year-old boy from Nottingham nearly died after a five-week chest infection led to a rare, life-threatening combination of meningitis and sepsis, likely caused by the infection spreading to his brain.
His mother, Martine Purdy, found him unresponsive with twisted fingers and strange murmurs, prompting an emergency hospital visit where doctors said he had only one hour to live.
Though he survived after a 19-month recovery, he still struggles with memory, speech, walking, and basic daily tasks.
Purdy is urging parents to seek medical help for persistent or unusual symptoms in children following infections, even if initial signs seem mild.
