A mum has said her daughter was left fighting for her life after catching sepsis five times while at Alder Hey Children's Hospital.
Louise Kingham's two-year-old daughter Lilly has been staying at Alder Hey Children's Hospital for the past year. Lilly has a condition called Dysmotility of the bowels which means she has to be fed through a tube and has a central venous catheter running to her heart.
Louise said that since staying at hospital Lilly has contracted sepsis five times in under twelve months which has left the toddler fighting for her life "again and again". Louise, 26, said that she was "promised the world" when she came to the hospital but has been living in a "nightmare"
