Why I Finally Decided to Ask for Help…
This isn’t easy for me to write.
If you know me, you know I’ve always been someone who figures things out… who keeps pushing forward no matter what. But today, I’m choosing to be real, open… and vulnerable.
Two years ago, I had a stroke.
In a single moment, life as I knew it changed. I was totally paralysed on the left side of my body and spent five weeks in hospital. I came very close to losing my life.
Things I once did without thinking became daily battles — physically, mentally, emotionally. And while I’ve made progress since then, the truth is… I’m still fighting every single day.
There have been wins. There have been setbacks. And there have been moments where it’s been incredibly hard to stay strong.
But I haven’t given up.
Recently, I discovered treatments and rehabilitation that could genuinely change the next chapter of my recovery — helping me regain more independence, more strength… more of me back.
The challenge?
The cost.
And that’s the reason I’ve created this page. Not because I wanted to… but because I need to.

I am so grateful for the support I have already received from all over the world which has had an immediate impact. I’ve already been able to book 10 days of intensive neurological therapy in April & May.
If you’re reading this, I’m asking from the heart — if you feel called to support, whether that’s a donation or simply sharing this post, it would mean more than I can put into words.
Every bit of support helps me take one step closer to rebuilding my life.
Thank you for being here, for reading this, and for being part of this journey with me 💙
