Earlier today I was looking up something in a medical book that we got at a book sale and thought, "I'll check the symptom charts while I have it open." I found something called bacteremia, which is bacteria in the bloodstream. It's often caused when another infection spreads to the blood. It can lead to serious problems such as infected organs and septicemia, a condition in which bacteria multiply and produce toxins. In light of this I'm going to say that James fell ill due to bacteremia (probably caused by an injury which became infected) which led to septicemia. That goes to show that if you have the right books, you can make it sound like you know what you're talking about!
