Jake Stoneman - always there for everyone else, now we need to be there for him.

4.5 months ago we were thrown a curveball of monstrous proportions.  Within a couple of hours of Jake suffering a crippling headache he was hospitalised & diagnosed as suffering from a subarachnoid haemorrhage aka a brain bleed aka a stroke.

In the following 17 days that Jake was in hospital our family had so much love & support piled on our little family.  It meant the world to us, we could focus on fighting a terrifying battle without worrying too much about what the days and months ahead would bring.

Today, Jake has had the big tick of approval from the specialists.  His latest MRI is boring (we love boring) and they are more than  happy with his progress.  He is under orders to listen to his body & not to go lifting gearboxes etc.

We were waiting for this day so we could share that news with you & also to say thank you.  Thank you to Paul Manuell for setting up the givealittle page, it brought me to tears when I didn't think I had any left.  You, my friend, are a genuine legend.  And thank you to everyone that chipped in.  You provided us a security buffer that is treasured.  You are all an incredible community & we are eternally grateful for what you all did for us.  Your thoughtfulness & generosity overwhelmed us. Thank you, thank you, thank you, you're the extended family we never knew we had ❤

Have a wonderful weekend

Teresa, Jake, Luke & Billie
