‘The Bionic MP’ Craig Mackinlay: ‘I Lost My Arms & Legs To Sepsis’ | This Morning

In September last year, MP Craig Mackinlay’s life changed in an instant. What started with him feeling unwell quickly escalated into a life-threatening battle with septic shock. Craig was rushed to hospital after turning blue and put into an induced coma for 16 days with his chances of survival standing at just 5%. Remarkably, Craig pulled through but underwent a quadruple amputation and was fitted with prosthetic legs and hands. Just 6 months later, Craig returned to parliament to a standing ovation with his wife and four-year-old daughter sitting in the public gallery.
