A nurse who lost her legs to sepsis was able to walk down the aisle with her dad on her wedding day - using new prosthetics.

Karen Paget, 59, also lost fingers on both hands and had to learn to walk again.

She started to feel unwell with flu-like symptoms after returning from a holiday in Wales in July 2018.

Three days later, she took a turn for the worse and her partner Lyndon rushed her to Derriford Hospital where she worked as a nurse.

She lost her limbs but has now walked down the aisle on her wedding day using new prosthetic legs.
