Thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page on iDonate.ie

September is Sepsis awareness month and September 13th marks Worls Sepsis Awareness Day. Sepsis is a potentially life threatening condition that occurs when the body's response to infection is so severe that it can lead to organ failure and in turn death. It is a medical emergency that requires prompt medical attention.

There are are a staggering 3000 annual sepsis related deaths in Ireland.

Within my role as a Clinical Nurse Specialist in Radiation Oncology we treat people on a daily basis who have the potential to be at risk of sepsis.

Therefore, in order to raise awareness for Sepsis, I have decided to under go a September Steps Challenge. I, along with some family members, hope to walk 13,000 steps per day (13th September being world Sepsis Day).

I've chosen to fundraise for Irish Sepsis Foundation. This wonderful charity aims to raise awareness and provides support for those affected by sepsis in the Republic of Ireland.

The foundation plays a vital role within HSE and across all hospital settings. They have recently held some productive discussions regarding critical issues surrounding sepsis awareness, education, aftercare and hospital protocols across Ireland.

All funds raised here will go directly to this great cause.

I hope you can help me by donating whatever you can. Simply click the Donate button above. All donations are processed securely.

I appreciate not everyone can donate, but if you could even spare a minute to go to Irish Sepsis Foundation page ,to create awareness for yourself regarding the signs and symptoms, it may benefit a loved one in the future.
