But then I got a UTI.

So I ended up on antibiotics in 2024.

And, of course, I thought, that's grand.

It kept coming back, the old infection.

And I ended up on the Monday, as I say, the 7th of July, I ended up in Tata Hospital.

and my urine was it was like milk tea that's the colour it was and then I discovered that they discovered I had sepsis so I was in the ward and I was there for four days in the ward lying in bed I didn't know anything about sepsis never heard the word before even and four days later I ended up down in ICU with a sepsis shock I got as well and um

It was a horrific, horrific experience.

And the two lads there, I resonate with so much they spoke about there and the effect that it has.

But, you know, the effect that it has, we survive it.

And I thank that so much, like the lads.

And I do think that we really need some back support when we come out of the hospital.

So many things happen here.

You know, the shock, the mental torture, which have kind of overcome the last world.

But I ended up back in October again for another week.

they said I had sepsis but they treated it for a week and I could go home then but I ended up also I ended up in the care home for three weeks in time and not learning to walk again so there's so many things but really the after effect when you get home and all the stuff that happens to you is horrendous I went through mental torture with fear and the exhaustion that I have is unbelievable right now even talking to you

You can't do anything.

I can't even put out the beam.

There's nothing in the owner.

He's a very active man doing stuff.

No, I can't.
