Mum, 22, suffered stroke as she sat at table on Christmas Day - but had no idea until three days later

A young mum suffered a stroke on Christmas Day while sitting at the table to eat her dinner. Casey Singleton's vision went blurry and she felt like she was going to fall off of her chair - but she had no idea what was happening to her.

The 22 year old realised how serious the situation was only a few days later when she went to a physio session and was instructed to see her doctor straight away. Days before her 22nd birthday Casey had suffered another stroke, and initially put her symptoms down to this.

On the evening of November 20, Casey was feeling tired and tried to go upstairs so she could go to sleep. But every time she tried to climb up a step on the stairs she fell back.
