A woman whose lifelong dream of becoming a paramedic was shattered by a shock epilepsy diagnosis aged 21 when she “had a seizure and lost everything” has since found a “new norm” with a career in law and wishes to give the message that there is “hope, no matter what you’ve lost”.
Ellie Adams, 28, who now works as a senior paralegal, said she had dreamed of becoming a paramedic “as early as (she) can remember” and felt it was what she was born to do.
