    A Bradford baby who had all her limbs amputated after contracting meningitis C will be able to go home in April.

    Medics described Kia Gott’s condition as "one of the worst cases of meningitis" ever seen and had at one point told the one-year-old’s family that she would most likely not survive.

    Following multiple skin grafts and a lengthy spell in hospital, doctors were able to give the good news to Kia’s parents that she would be allowed home for Easter.
