WORLD STROKE DAY 2026 🌍
We never imagined we'd be the family this happened to. 💔
On 31st May 2024, our beautiful 9-year-old daughter suffered a devastating haemorrhagic stroke caused by a ruptured brain AVM.
Until that day, childhood stroke wasn't something we'd ever really thought about.
Now it's something we live with every single day.
Today, I want to raise awareness not just of strokes themselves, but of everything that comes afterwards.
The physical challenges, the emotional impact, the frustration and the effect on the entire family.
Scarlett has come so incredibly far, but her recovery is ongoing.
A stroke doesn't discriminate. It can happen to anyone, at any age. Even children.
Please learn the warning signs. Remember B.E.F.A.S.T. If you suspect a stroke, call 999 immediately.
💜 Please share. You never know whose life this information could save.
