She has vowed to return home
A woman 'left trapped in her own body' after a brain tumour burst has vowed to return home to be with the baby girl she had while in a coma. Heavily-pregnant Emma Taylor, 33, was placed in an induced coma before giving birth to daughter Ophelia by emergency caesarean in October last year.
Scott, from Chelmsford, Essex, said: "Emma was recovering really well in rehab, but due to a lack of beds she's been moved to a less intense programme. She can't talk yet, but she can communicate with her hands and head movements - she's showed she's determined to get better for our daughter." Shortly after, doctors decided to deliver Ophelia via C-section so they could carry out scans without affecting the baby. After birth, scans revealed Emma had been living with a non-cancerous brain tumour, likely since she was born.
"The scans then showed a huge tumour she'd been living with which had burst after pregnancy hormones accelerated its growth This caused a bleed on the brain and, as a result, her right brain stem and right eye were affected - leaving her left side paralysed." She was then transferred to Northwick Park rehab unit, where she's been recovering for three months - but the NHS has now deemed her lower priority. A reduction in rehabilitation therapy will slow her progress and Scott is afraid of the effects this could have on her recovery time. He's therefore started a GoFundMe in a bid to raise the money for private treatment which he hopes will get Emma talking and walking again - and back to their daughter.
