A sports mad teen was placed into a coma after she suffered a stroke aged just 15. Lily suffered a brain aneurysm and was taken by helicopter to the Bristol Royal Hospital for Children.
She was due to have an operation at 2am but her aneurysm ruptured. After two operations, Lily was sent an intensive care ward where and later underwent two weeks of physio to regain her mobility.
She was transferred to Cardiff to finish her recovery after the stroke in June 2022. One year on Lily is back doing what she loves playing sport and has returned to the hospital to thank staff who saved her life.
