Kaitlyn grew up in a small town in Newfoundland and Labrador, it's there she developed her passion for helping others. After completing an honours degree in neuroscience, she was accepted into medical school. She worked hard in her studies until her world was turned upside down. Just one week before finishing her first year of medical school, she became a critical care patient herself from a stroke at the age of 24.
She had to re-learn basic functions again like learning how to talk, eat, and sit up unsupported. For anyone that knows her, this challenging climb has not daunted her from signature determination and spirit to conquer the road ahead.
Kaitlyn's recovery journey is now at a turning point. Kaitlyn has recently travelled from her home province to Toronto, Ontario to pursue a physiotherapy device not available in Newfoundland. Following a one week successful trial, Kaitlyn is hoping to go back for longer period of time to further her recovery and will require new adaptive equipment and technologies.
With the exciting possibilities that lie ahead, please consider supporting the rising costs of therapy and new equipment. No matter what amount of support you can provide, it will be profoundly appreciated.
