At the beginning of 2016, I spent four and a half weeks in Northampton General Hospital, 9 days in ICU and 3 days in HDU, and have been busy during the intervening almost five years, almost recovering from meningococcal bacterial meningitis, sepsis and pneumonia. I've written a book, a detailed account of the whole experiences and my recovery it called Eight Seconds of MenB. I was hallucinating very badly with the overwhelming infection and the medication I was on. I really is the most frightening experience imaginably although I somehow manage to record some dates and event at the time. This is a "no holds bared" account, the whole experience was utterly horrendous, and my recovery has been very upsetting and challenging. I'm nearly there, and want to share this.
