This link below is an article in today's Californian newspaper about Sepsis or Sepsis Shock. This is what took the life of my Sister-in-Law, Erin, young mother of three, ages 6 and under.
Many people have never heard of it but it kills over 200,000 people per year in the US. It's not easily explained but this article explains it about as plainly as any other i've seen.
And almost everyone I know who knows about Erin's death were, well, dumbfounded (as we were) about this little-known agressive infection that kills so quickly and why we didn't have the chance to stop it.
Please take a moment to read it. If you recognize the early signs, it may save the life of someone you love.
