I have always had a passion for nature and the outdoors since I was a small boy. This has now grown into a love of Bushcraft. I also have a passion for wood work. Which is great as I can make a lot of my own equipment. I sell a lot of the items I make in my online shop which also gives you a chance to own them too. Theres a link bellow to my shop.
When I'm not in the woods or in my workshop creating, then I will be out on 2 wheels or chasing history.

I recently lost my cousin from Sepsis. Her husband went to visit her at her rehab center. She had fallen and broken her ankle 3 places. They gave her a pain med that completely covered her body in puss filled blisters. Along with that she had afib. While in rehab she was left in her room most of the time. No additional antibiotics for the blisters she still had. Her husband visited her and said something is wrong my cousin (sweetest ever) told him to go home she's ok. Refused to leave. He made them to send her to hospital. They did whatever they did and sent her back to rehab. He still knew she wasn't getting better. He went home at the urging of my cousin and then He Got THE CALL. CAUSE OF DEATH SEPSIS.
You got your Guardian angel in this video it’s going all around you I don’t know if you felt it at the time they were very active and I was saying it’s not your time to leave this planet yet!
Very nice wood & metal work! I will go to Etsy. Btw...Love your sepsis video too. Thank you for making that. I shared it with people bc it is so important for folks to know about. I'm in the US & had my own episode of infection, which led to septic shock 3 yrs ago. Septic Shock is different. But have crossovers, as both are the immune system's reaction to what it sees as a pathogen. The two still get confused all the time. Both can lead to Post Septic Syndrome, which I also have. Ugh! So weary from it, though it's getting better. I wish you the best getting over yours. I'm going comment further over on your sepsis video.
Thank you for sharing. I had a friend who was bitten by a spider on her ankle last year. Within a few days she had sepsis and was out of her mind fighting her family because she didn’t want to go to the hospital. They didn’t understand she wasn’t being difficult, her mind was not working. It has been almost a year and she may never walk. Her ankle may never heal and you can see the actual ankle bone. There is little information shared about sepsis but it is deadly and if you don’t die from it, various organs can be permanently damaged so TAKE IT SERIOUSLY! And be your own advocate if no one is taking you seriously! While visiting with your family and friends, share these stories so others can be more aware of the symptoms! You may save a life!
It's weird they didnt tell you - on the side of every ambulance in my region is a big poster saying "Think! Could it be Sepsis?" Doesnt tell you what to look out for, but at least it's a big publicity on the word - I seriously hope you are doing a lot better now, thank you for explaining it all so clearly
Riiight the orb justbstrolling or rolling back in forth this lovey fellows video, think it might be his mate he said he lost in the beginning. This poor fellow has been through it bkess him. My husbandbpassed away two months ago and I think it was the underlining feature to his brain anyroism. Best of health to you though 😘
I can’t believe they were going to send you home and not even tell you that you had the Sepsis infection. Thankyou as a man for sharing your story..my hubby always tries to blow off symptoms and “self” diagnose…I pay attention to it all as his partner/wife.
I only found out I had,had Sepsis until my son read my discharge papers when I came home. I had pneumonia January22 and admitted to hospital on 23 January, my son found me at 2am down stairs sat on my chair in my own sloppy poo. He had to clean me up and put me in clean clothes before he took me to A and E.. Iknew nothing about this becauseI was completely out of it. My kidneys were closing down, I was having difficulty breathing,it felt as if I had wet mud in my lungs when I breathed. . I was in a delirium,two nights I was sure nurses were planning to kill me,then a naive storm was going to destroy the strange place I was lying in. (Ihad no idea I was in hospital. My temperature was boiling and yet I was shivering . After 4 days I began to be more aware of where I was, and felt better E every time my son came to visit me,and also my friends. Since Sepsis,my legs don’t move as they used to when I walk,my knees are stiff,every joint aches far worse than they ever did,I have arthritis for years but it’s far worse now, I know my sanity has been compromised. I’m 78 years old woman I feel 100.years old . …..Since sepsis I feel I’m mentally and physically walking through treacle. Thankyou so much for your video xx
I’m so glad they figured out what was going on with you. I wish you the very best of everything. What you went through is insane, I wish you all the best with your health, healing and happiness ❤
And you are always told not to self prescribed from the internet ...well just shows you that doing this is often better than visiting a doctor. Good luck with your recovery
Similar scenario for me but a better, quicker outcome. Nicked the side of my left index finger while cleaning my motorbike Saturday morning, tiny nick around 3mm. By suppertime the nick was red and swollen so rubbed some Savlon in it. Went to bed and next morning woke up with my finger on fire and track marks up the inside of my forarm & bicep. Wife drove me to A&E and in the 20 minute trip the track marks were showing on the side of my neck and finger was swelling and whole hand was burning terribly. In A&E they told me to sit down and wait, within 10 minutes was getting delerious and feeling faint. Managed to stumble the 30 feet over to the receptionist to slur ''I'm going unconcious I think I've got blood poisoning ! Rushed me into a treatment room where I told them to cut my finger off cos the burning was so painful in my arm. Four I.V. bags of broad spectrum anti-biotics later they got my temperature down and the burning became just tolerable. Emergency Doctor said just bad luck with bad bacteria and if I'd have waited for an ambulance I'd probably be dead. Sent me home the next day with a necrotic area on my finger that most of the skin fell off ! Scary stuff mate and can't be underestimated and we're similar age, keen cyclist and fit. Luckily my finger healed and I've never had any reoccurring symptoms and that was around eight years ago. I do take much more care with nicks and knocks now and have even more of an eye on my general health cos I was under a lot of stress at work & home at the time and I knew I was low. Take care, get good rest, reduce stress and above all Good Luck 😉
Had to laugh, but it dose sound stupid when your mind plays tricks on you, I know Although I could tell I was in hospital in my mind i was in a tent with doctors and nurses coming in and out,, on a sloping green trying not to slide down on the grass and one time a doctor with a turban was talking with me in front of a London route master bus. Now to be truthful I was not aware of meeting a Doctor as I had fallen unconscious soon as i got taken in the hospital but the Doctor who delt with me on my arrival was a Indian man wearing a turban whom looked exactly the same . Sepsis has affected me more than having cancer, We went through similar affections though I hope your recovery will be quicker, Unfortunate for me the sepsis got into the spine and caused no feelings from waist down. Learning to walk was a challenge but although with help of a stick and being very tiring I have managed. I was in hospital last year including Christmas went home on the 29th December but back in hospital 30 hours later to spend new year there. I was told I had Sepsis a few times but i could not remember what i was told after a few minutes. When young I had what was then called blood poisoning ended up in a wheel chair for a time the trigger to my sepsis was A-Cdif (it was killing lots of babies that caught it last year and is a notifiable illness+
You made some very important points in your video that others need to recognise, even doctors or partners need to look out for. 1. Swelling of any part of the body with me it was my face, 2. High or low blood. (Mine was very low) 3. high temperature. 4.feeling of having a bad cold or flu. 5. Weakness in legs and balance . cold outer extremity's this includes hands, feet, ears and nose (I do not have a nose or one ear with circulation owing to cancer operations but that is a separate problem but the reason is with sepsis bloods are cut off by your body as it try's to keep main organs functioning. and one good thing to do is to try to put pen to paper (I tried to rite a shopping list for my friend to get some things from the chemist it was unreadable. of course there are other signs but having two or more of these signs dose mean you must get checked out. i will recommend exercise and even balance course (i am on a course now meant for people whom have had hip or knee operations. The group i am with in Kent is called INSIGHTsimilar@@philwood1683
Good video. This is why my first aid kit includes a bottle of amoxicillin and a bottle of cipro. The first time i had a run in with a bacterial infection i ignored it too until i almost lost my leg. Needed IV antibiotics too.
Phil, will this hurt you to go [not try]**Carnivore ** ?? Go on line and listen and learn from Bona-fide, Truthful, Selftested,Carnivore Revolutionaries. And get CURED and GOD BLESS 🙏 YOURS.
good to hear your recovering i had it was put in a coma for 28 days, they had to take my right leg above the knee, had heart failure, kidneys dont work anymore ,had it 4 times over 6 years, got copd as well now ,i was lucky my misses didnt listen to me and rang 999 i was 40 plus on temp, 76 oxygen levels and dropping same with blood pressure ,crazy things i saw with tripping
Christ you had a rough one there glad your on the mend now your right about the watch the last 2 times I’ve been ill my stress levels went through the roof so knew I was in for it proper man flu / Covid. Was wondering have ever looked in to cold water exposure to help I could send some videos over to you on facebook.
Just bought this, I was looking to see if it was on RU-vid, I wasn’t disappointed!🤣 Excellent bit of kit, I bought a Chinese made 25mm auger but it’s very poorly made, it needs reprofiling a tad and most certainly sharpening. This kit works out as cheap, if not cheaper than buying individual quality augers with the advantage of having a ratchet.😁
