Video: Mum learns to walk and talk again at the same time as her two-year-old daughter after suffering stroke at the age of 23

A young mum left unable to care for her children after a major stroke at the age of 23 has learned to walk and talk again at the same time as her baby daughter.

Stacey Legrice, 25, felt trapped in her own body after the sudden brain attack, which left her “like a baby” and meant she could not move or communicate. The mum-of-three took 18 months to learn to talk again, saying her first word just days before her baby daughter Aurora, now aged 2.
