A brave amputee mum dressed her toddler with just half a thumb, after she lost all her fingers in a horrific sepsis ordeal. Sadie Kemp, 34, spent 103 days in hospital fighting the deadly infection that emerged after she collapsed with kidney pain on Christmas Day.
Sadie, from Peterborough, Cambs, proudly said that she dressed son Hendrix, two, with just half her remaining thumb after she returned home on Thursday. The former NHS worker even set up an Easter egg hunt for Hendrix and put the tot's suncream on. Posting a picture with Hendrix on Facebook, Sadie wrote: "103 nights away from you! Sepsis tried to kill me, it failed.
"Sepsis killed my limbs but not our bond. As long as there is air in my lungs I will make sure our road is steady even through trauma."
