A mum who had her hands and feet amputated following a sepsis infection has climbed Kilimanjaro in an astonishing feat of endurance. Corinne Hutton completed her five-day ascent of the highest free-standing mountain in the world on Friday (October 5). And the 48-year-old is believed to be the first female quadruple amputee to do so. The mum-of-one suffered a bad cough in 2013, which turned out to be pneumonia - and then became a sepsis infection.
