Lexi began experiencing swelling and abdominal cramps during her A-level exams, and the family initially attributed the symptoms to stress.
However, after medical examinations, she was diagnosed with a rare and dangerous strain of E. coli called VTEC, which did not respond to antibiotics and raised concerns that she might develop sepsis.
Amanda was filming in Spain when she received calls from government officials to fill out forms about Lexi’s diet and the food at home. The doctors were baffled about how Lexi contracted the infection, as it is usually associated with rural environments and livestock, and even the family’s pets were tested.
Lexi was the 113th case in the UK during the outbreak, and although she was discharged after five days of hospitalization, she continues to undergo regular blood tests.
Lexi’s condition was so severe that she may need an endoscopy to assess potential ongoing stomach issues due to the infection. Amanda described the experience as terrifying, especially upon hearing the word “sepsis,” and is focused on her daughter’s continued recovery.
