Swim for Stroke

I'm taking part in the Swim for Stroke challenge!

I joined #TeamStroke for Swim for Stroke.

Stroke Association is here to support people to rebuild their lives after stroke. We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke, so we work with the stroke community to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support. We rely on your support to provide vital services, campaign for better stroke care and fund research into preventative and rehabilitative treatments.

My story

Monday 4th Sep
This is something very close to my heart. In 2020 I was diagnosed with bells palsey, then the next day I was in hospital receiving full stroke treatment. This was a terrifying time especially during the pandemic! With adam at home with joe, not being able to see them was heart breaking! Im so thankful for the support of the rest of both families, especially when i got home and couldnt lift my little boy. I had no pre warning signs, I was young and healthy! I'm so thankful to have made the recovery I have from both of these. So to all my loved ones who have suffered and myself, which they put down to a phantom stroke we can smash through this! ❤️

Thank you to my sponsors

I understand how scary Strokes can be and really should be made aware of what the signs are more. my dad had one when i was 22 and walking along next min on the floor and my nan passed by having a stroke and a friend recently at drama has had one shes on the mend but slow recovery
