CHERYL Fergison has opened up about suffering a heartbreaking stroke – describing it as “one of the lowest times in my life”.
The actress was struck by the medical emergency in May which has left her walking with a stick.
Recalling the terrifying experience, former EastEnders star Cheryl, 59, said: “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.”
She continued to the Mirror : “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.”
