After a stroke, Philip lost his ability to swallow.
With the support of our Speech & Language Therapy team in South West Acute Hospital, he slowly rebuilt that skill.
Today, a cup of tea means more than just a drink.

Did you see the wonderful Polly the dog from Ballinamallard hitting the headlines this week?
When Polly's owner Adam had a cardiac arrest last year, the golden retriever's life-saving instincts alerted Adam's wife Hannah, who started #CPR and rang the emergency services, saving Adam's life.
Polly and Hannah were honoured at British Heart Foundation's #HeartHeroes awards in London this week.
You can learn CPR for free in 15 minutes using our interactive tool RevivR: 📷bhf.org.uk/.../how-to.../lea…

We are at Altnagelvin Hospital @WesternHSCTrust raising awareness that stroke can affect anyone at any age on #WorldStrokeDay 💜
It’s a personal journey that can take years and impacts every aspect of the lives of survivors and their families. But recovery is possible 💜
Thanks to @StephenNolan for raising awareness that stroke can affect anyone at any age and that many stroke survivors need long-term robust support to recover and live well #WorldStrokeDay 💜 @AlasdairOHara
It's the fourth biggest killer in the UK - but would you be aware of the signs if you - or a loved one - were having a stroke?
