A much-loved mum died just four days after returning home from a holiday to Egypt. Sandra Phillpott picked up a bacterial infection from an 'unidentified source' while on the dream trip with her twin sister.

She went to a walk-in centre with cold-like symptoms after returning home, but her condition deteriorated and she was then sent to Blackpool Victoria Hospital by ambulance, LancsLive reports.

At first, doctors treated her for a suspected pulmonary embolism but it was later revealed she was suffering from sepsis and tragically died the following morning.

Despite ruling quicker treatment would not have saved her life, Mr Wilson says he wants to raise concerns around "the recognition of suspected sepsis, and the need for timely provision of treatment for suspected sepsis".

Peer Support, Positive Mindset Predict Resilience in ADHD Teens: Study
August 28, 2024Peer acceptance, a sense of self-efficacy, and a stress-is-enhancing mindset are strong predictors of resilience in older teens with ADHD, according to a small longitudinal study published in Child Psychiatry & Human Development.1The study, which followed 113 adolescents with ADHD from 10th to 12th grade, found that higher levels of peer acceptance, self-efficacy, and a growth mindset in 10th or 11th grade predicted higher levels of resilience 1.5 to 2 years later.Participants from the present study were assessed at three points:Peer acceptance at the start of the study explained 24% of the variance in resilience at follow-up. Teens with less severe ADHD symptoms were significantly more likely to report feelings of peer acceptance.Resilience was measured using the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), which asked teens to measure their agreement with statements such as “I tend to bounce back quickly after hard times” and “I take a long time to get over setbacks in my life.”Self-efficacy mediated the relationship between peer acceptance and resilience, accounting for 39% of the variance in resilience at follow-up.“Greater self-efficacy has been associated with positive outcomes for children and adolescents with ADHD, including lower levels of depression and internalizing symptoms, and reported higher quality of life,” wrote Elizabeth Chan, lead author of the study.Though ADHD symptom severity did not change the positive effect of self-efficacy on resilience, existing research shows that ADHD symptoms can negatively impact self-esteem.A stress-is-enhancing mindset accounted for 31% of the variance in resilience.
