Overview

  • Philip Masey, a 31-year-old mortgage adviser, suffered a spontaneous brain hemorrhage in February, collapsing alone at home in Kidderminster, Worcestershire.
  • Emergency surgery at Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham removed part of his skull and placed him in an induced coma, saving his life but leaving him with significant impairments.
  • After weeks of hospital rehabilitation, Philip returned home on April 18 and is now under the full-time care of his mother, Charlotte Mannouris, in North Leicestershire.
  • Philip has made gradual progress, including speaking simple phrases and taking assisted steps, but doctors caution that his chances of full recovery remain slim.
  • A GoFundMe campaign has raised over £13,000 to fund additional private therapies and home adaptations critical for his continued recovery.
