A woman who suffered a stroke after a seagull stole her fish and chips was back holidaying the next day thanks to a team of medical experts. Helen Corns was rushed to hospital when her family noticed her face starting to droop.
Once at Hull Royal Infirmary, "interventional radiologists" performed a procedure known as mechanical thrombectomy to restore her brain function. And as reported by Hull Live, Helen was discharged after just one day and suffered no lasting neurological damage.
Helen said: “If I’d been taken to another hospital that didn’t do this procedure, maybe I wouldn’t have made it. But they were absolutely wonderful and I know how lucky I am.”
