Walking to enhance stroke awareness and recovery
Seven years ago I suffered a stroke in the most unusual of circumstances - At 29 years of age I was involved in a workplace accident that caused a blood clot to form and go up to my brain, resulting in a devastating stroke that paralysed my left side.
In defiance of the doctors who said I would never walk again, I'm aiming to complete the Lake Burley Griffin Bridge to Bridge walk within an hour.
Stroke is one of Australia's biggest killers and doesn't discriminate; it can affect anyone, anytime, whether it be due to lifestyle factors or freak circumstances like mine. It claims more lives than breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men. And incredibly, around 600 Australian children experience stroke each year.
Your support goes beyond just a donation; it's a lifeline for individuals at risk of stroke and survivors of stroke.
You may also join me on Monday 5th August at 8AM for the Bridge to Bridge walk. Meet at the International Flags (next to carpark).
