What Are The Chances Of Relapse In Case Of Septic Shock?

how will we know if someone is out of the woods after severe septic shock. My sister in-law colapsed Jan 1st and was on life support till the 18th of jan. she has since lost a thumb a finger and a toe. She has lost her hair and is extremely fatigued. She has good spirits and was very healthy before colapsing. She is home but we are very concerned about a relapse or other infections. I know I for one have become paronoid whenever a family member gets sick. I had never heard of this before we had this happen in our family.
