Teenager Rebuilds Life After Rare Brain Surgery to Treat Cavernoma

Ellie Morris-Davies, 16, has relearned to walk, talk, and perform on stage following nine surgeries and an innovative procedure to save her life.

Ellie Morris-Davies suffered a life-threatening brain bleed caused by a cavernoma, a rare cluster of abnormal blood vessels.
She underwent nine surgeries in 13 weeks, including a decompressive craniectomy where part of her skull was stored in her stomach to keep it sterile.
Her recovery has been marked by intensive physiotherapy and personalized dance therapy to regain mobility and confidence.
Ellie recently returned to performing on stage, a milestone in her journey to reclaim her passion for singing and dancing.
Her family and friends continue to support her recovery, including fundraising efforts for advanced therapy programs.
