Weʼve raised £3,030 to Donate to the John Radcliffe neuro intensive care unit where my 38 year old girlfriend is being treated after a bleed on the brain
- Funded on Sunday, 19th June 2016
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
My partner suffered a collapse at home at 41 1/2 weeks pregnant, she was found to have a bleed on the brain and was rushed to the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford where she had an emergency c section and gave birth to a perfect little girl called lexi( our daughter). She was transferred to the neuro intensive care unit where she was diagnose bd with a subarachnoid haemorrhage/ stroke. The staff at the John Radcliffe have been amazing and I would like to raise some money to say thanks. My girlfriend has been so brave but she has missed the first week of our daughters life which is so difficult to put into words.
Thank you
Kevin Smees

8 years agoNicola has had a good week, she has had lots of contact with Lexi and lots of visitors. She has now been off the ventilator and breathing on her own for the past 4 days and has started some physio. Hope to be moved to the rehabilitation unit in the next few weeks. Thanks Kevin x
