Episode description

Elaina O'Shea: Modelling and running marathons from the age of 16 she had never been in a hospital before and then in 2010 her life changed forever when she suffered a head trauma in London. For the last decade she has built her career despite many challenges from her broken brain. Moving to Stockholm was the best decision she ever made and she has now been seizure free since the start of 2020. She aims to prove that epilepsy has nothing to do with intellectual ability or physical fitness.
