SISTER SAVED ME FROM SEPSIS END

Nurse spotted signs & called an ambulance for Moninne

- NICOLA DONNELLY

A WOMAN told how she almost died from sepsis - only for her sister who spotted the symptoms and rushed her to hospital.

Moninne Bradley lost the tips of her fingers on one hand and was left fighting for her life last year as the result of the "silent disease".

Had it not been for the quick actions of her sister Orla Noonan, who is a nurse, she would not have survived.

In the weeks leading up to her collapse, Moninne had been fighting an infection and had taken a course of antibiotics and steroids to combat it.
