Young Edinburgh woman who 'felt a bit ill' at work almost died of deadly sepsis

An Edinburgh woman who was rushed to hospital after falling ill at work is speaking out on her traumatic ordeal, in hopes of raising awareness.

Rachel Flynn, 25, was in the office one day when she suddenly and drastically became very ill. Before she knew it, Rachel was in an ambulance with her fiancé being told she was in septic shock.

Eight months later, she's preparing to raise funds for charity Sepsis Research FEAT, who research and design treatments for sepsis, by running a half marathon - something she wasn't sure she'd be able to do a few months ago.
