Cheryl Fergison has revealed she suffered a worrying stroke in May and is currently having to use a walking stick.
The actress, 59, was struck by the medical emergency which she described as ‘one of the lowest times in my life’.
She told The Mirror: I went to bed but couldn’t settle. When I got up in the night to go to the bathroom, my balance completely went and I had to stop myself from falling over. My whole right side felt numb, heavy and tingly.
‘You lose the ability to coordinate your hands, to walk properly, your balance is gone. It’s frustrating and makes you angry. But I’ve started to recover; I am coming on in leaps and bounds now.
‘Material things don’t matter; they can be lost or broken, but memories are everything. Friends, family and laughter – that’s all that matters.’
