<div>
 At just 39 years old, our beautiful Kayele has been fighting for her life.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 12 years ago, whilst pregnant with her son Archie, Kayele almost died after suffering a tear in her aorta. She underwent life-saving surgery and was fitted with mechanical heart valves.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Against all odds, she survived.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 But earlier this year, tragedy struck again.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Whilst driving, a large blood clot broke away from Kayele’s heart and travelled to her brain, causing a catastrophic stroke.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 She was airlifted to Royal Preston Hospital, where she underwent an emergency thrombectomy to remove the clot.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 The following day, Kayele suffered a devastating bleed on her brain. Her family were faced with the heartbreaking decision to consent to further life-saving surgery — a decompressive craniectomy to relieve the swelling and pressure on her brain.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Kayele survived, but was placed into a medically induced coma.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Seven days later, when doctors reintroduced the blood-thinning medication she requires for her mechanical heart valves, she suffered another brain bleed and needed further emergency surgery.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 For 20 agonising days, her family waited, hoping and praying she would wake up.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 And then, against all odds, she did. ❤️
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Kayele eventually came off the ventilator and began breathing independently. She is now at Furness General Hospital in Barrow.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 But her fight is far from over.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Kayele is paralysed down her right side, and her speech and ability to communicate have been severely affected.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 She is receiving physiotherapy and speech therapy, but she desperately needs more intensive specialist neurological rehabilitation to give her the best possible chance of recovery.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Unfortunately, Kayele has only been funded for 12 weeks of NHS rehabilitation, and due to her previous medical history, private medical insurance was unaffordable.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Specialist private neurological rehabilitation can cost an estimated £4,500–£8,500 PER WEEK.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 That means six months of rehabilitation alone could cost £117,000–£221,000.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 And sadly, due to the severity of her stroke, Kayele is likely to need ongoing care, therapy and support for the rest of her life. Her long-term needs may include specialist equipment, mobility assistance and continued rehabilitation.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 That’s why we’re trying to raise an initial £150,000 to help fund specialist rehabilitation and ongoing recovery support.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 ❤️ Above everything, we want Kayele to have the best possible quality of life with her two sons, C-Jay and Archie.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 To be able to communicate with them, tell them she loves them, share memories and hopefully regain the ability to walk and enjoy everyday life with her boys.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Nobody can promise what Kayele’s recovery will look like, but we want to give her every possible opportunity.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Kayele has already fought for her life twice. Now it’s our turn to fight for her future. ❤️
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Please, if you can spare anything at all, no matter how small, it would mean the world to us.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 And if you can’t donate, please share. Every share could make a difference.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Let’s give Kayele the chance to live, not just survive. ❤️
