Our story

February 1st marks exactly 10 months since the most scary day in my life. I woke on 1st April 2024 to realise something was really wrong with me, difficulty speaking, poor coordination and balance, a very noticeable weakness on my left side and my left hand felt like it wasn’t mine. 
Being so young I had no idea what was happening. Quickly after arriving in hospital, Doctors told me I had suffered a stroke. So traumatic from being transferred to the Stroke Unit(I don’t think I will ever forget this feeling), waiting on all the medical tests, all tests and exams to determine if I would be would left with any deficits. 
Massive thanks to all my family and friends especially Mam, Dad, B and Pedro who came to hold my hand at the million appointments that ensued, I’ve made a full recovery. I couldn’t have done it without them all by my side. Strokes and heart attacks can happen to anyone. For me, it was completely unexplainable with absolutely no pre-existing or underlying risk factors. I was completely healthy and still suffered a stroke. 
So I feel it so important to try my best to help other people that have or may in the future find themselves suffering from strokes or heart attacks. 
Pedro and I are taking part in the 100km challenge for February RUN 100 in February 2025 to raise vital funds for the Irish Heart Foundation. We would be so grateful if you could spare a euro or two to sponsor us to raise much needed funds to help make people’s recovery a little easier. Thanks so much
