@LauraRosenCohen Yes I am. And I should point out we’re at St George’s and being cared for brilliantly. I’m just keen on furthering things and looking to the future. Thanks v much for reposting, very kind.

@mailliw Praying for your beloved daughter. I will re-post this and hope that some doctors follow me and can share thoughts. Are you in the UK?

Dear internet. My darling four-year-old is fighting for her life after a massive stroke 8 days ago. She has Down’s Syndrome but has until now been living a normal, happy, joyful life with her mummy, dada and brother. I need hope. I need examples of recovery from similar cases 🧵

@lizjonwilltom I see you’re in York. We had a holiday booked for York on the day after it happened. If we ever make it back I’ll send you a note.

@mailliw Wishing your little girl all the best. I know two families who have children with DS who have had strokes. Both had Moyamoya disease and underwent neurosurgery to treat it. Whilst still affected by the strokes, both young people live good lives from what I understand. Xxx

@lizjonwilltom Thanks. Just read about that and will do. She had decompressive surgery at ~48h but will mention this. She isn’t yet stable enough for an MRI which would yield more discoveries for causes but she’s had a v promising day today so are moving in the right direction. Thanks for msg x

@mailliw If your hospital team haven’t already mentioned it, please ensure that they have looked into the possibility that the stroke was caused by Moyamoya. It’s very rare but more common in those with DS, and surgical treatment is really important to preventing further damage.

@wordsmansfield @LauraCummingArt How cool. Send her our love. Tell her that her namesake is fighting to emulate her one day. Enjoy her company x

@mailliw @LauraCummingArt I can’t speak to the medical specfics, but I have been working on a play (staged yesterday) with a young woman, also DS, also Emilia. She is delightful, irrepressible. Prayers that your little girl will grow up to be the same.

@alanroderick Thanks old sock

@mailliw So sorry to hear this, Will. I'm sure the docs/science have got Emilia's back. Sending the most-positive, Bazballing-est vibes imaginable

@dan_brigham Thanks Briggers. Received with thanks. Hope you’re doing well x

@mailliw Mate, so sorry to hear this. Sending love and the biggest and best wishes

@mightykelland Thanks for being my friend

@mailliw I am praying all the time x

@patrick_kidd It’s Boycs I feel for

@mailliw We’ll always have that cockney piano bar… would love to meet again one day

@patrick_kidd Think of you often. We had some laughs. We’ll have them again I hope. X

@mailliw Oh Will. I am so sorry to hear this. Emilia is beautiful and your love for her is evident. You have my prayers and hope for improvement. It’s been ages since we last met but I remember you very fondly.

I need progressive, tech-minded neurologists to see this tweet and give me hope that my expectation of AI’s impact on medicine - in the next 3 years, transform for the better the treatment of strokes in children - is correct.

A very proud day, interviews on request etc (...but who wants to tell Baz the dictionary has misspelt his name in the citation...? 😲)

@andymcg_cricket Thank you for your submission. Unfortunately we will need more than that to consider representing your novel.

@miller_cricket @ESPNcricinfo Meahhhhvellous

In a potentially chaotic experiment, I am going to attempt a dual minute-by-minute / ball-by-ball report of the World Cup final and Women’s Hundred, both starting at 11am, on @ESPNcricinfo. What could possibly go wrong? #TheHundred #WorldCupFinal espncricinfo.com/series/the-hun…
