Sylvia strikes back

Medical Secretary gives something back to research and treatment

Sylvia’s friends remembered her for her kind heart, and her strong desire to help others. Even though she suffered lifelong poor health, while also caring for her critically ill mother. But Sylvia didmore than put on a brave face: she struck back against illness byworking as a medical secretary, and following medical advances keenly. That’s howshe found out that with conditions such as stroke, the right treatment and back-up canmake all the difference when given promptly.

So it’s not surprising Sylvia decided that one of the best things she could dowould be to strike back again, by supporting thework of theStroke Association – and leave us a generous gift in her Will. Today, we take time to rememberher. Because Sylvia is still playing an important part in helping us create a future free of stroke, and turn around the lives of thousands of stroke survivors each year.
