A 4-year-old girl from Wales nearly died after she tried on a pair of shoes while barefoot and contracted a serious infection.
The incident took place in the U.K., where Sienna Rasul fell ill the day after putting new shoes on her bare feet as she played outside. As the Sun reported, the shoes likely rubbed up against the girl’s bare foot, leaving an abrasion that allowed the potentially deadly bacteria to enter her body.
The condition turned into sepsis, and Sienna was taken to a hospital.
“I was really shocked when the doctors said it was from trying on new shoes,” said her mother, Jodie Thomas. “I’ve been worried sick, they’ve had to drain all the poison from her leg. Normally she would have socks on but it’s summertime so she was wearing sandals.”
