A three-year-old girl made a miracle recovery after spending three weeks fighting for her life in hospital with deadly Strep A.
Rosa Carter’s parents Shelley and Alex were preparing for the worst as she also battled sepsis and blood clots caused by an invasive form of the virus. But now she’s back home safe for Christmas, they’ve praised the NHS for saving her life.
After getting her home on Friday, mum Shelley said: “She’s an absolute miracle, as are the doctors and nurses who treated her, and our hearts could not be fuller tonight.” Rosa, from Edinburgh, was admitted to the city’s Royal Hospital For Children And Young People last month after being rushed to A&E with pains in her leg.
