On this episode Elizabeth and Julia speak to an inspiring couple, Joy Alliy and Ross Methven, who were impacted by brain injury when Joy suddenly had a stroke aged 42.
She was living in Tanzania at the time with Ross who initially found it hard to believe she'd had a stroke because she was so young.
They share their story of what happened in September 2020 and what medical help Joy did, and didn’t, receive following her stroke.
During their time in Dar es Salaam they experienced some negative attitudes towards disability and mental health.
Joy has since relocated to the UK and with Ross' help has fought back and made an incredible recovery, inspiring others along the way.
Ross has been by her side every step of the way and shares some of the challenges he has found in this new role as a carer and how they have created a new life together.
