A surgeon has been honored with a Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust People First Recognition Award for saving a young boy from sepsis. Jackson, from Mansfield, was rushed to the Queen's Medical Centre and was minutes away from death before being saved by the quick-thinking of Shailinder Singh.
A surgeon has paid tribute to a "true black swan" young Nottinghamshire boy who he saved when he was just minutes away from death from sepsis. Jackson, from Mansfield, was rushed to the Queen's Medical Centre for emergency surgery after he collapsed aged seven.
"Jackson's words were 'he saved my life' and that was it, that was the reason. If he wasn't there that night we wouldn't have Jackson and people said that." "In India they used to take us to the fields where soldiers were dying. Stretchers were operating tables, it was damage control, ten minutes and next soldier."
