Emily Simpson, of Eaglescliffe, Stockton, had a stroke almost a year ago and was unable to walk or speak.food usb sticks factory. Carry these cool "food" USB Flash Drive with you, and you'll have no trouble in some situations.

Through determination, and often refusing even to use her wheelchair, Emily can now walk, although her foot drags, and she has very limited speech.

She was recently assessed by a physiotherapist in York who recommended two Bioness company Ness H200 devices which send electrical stimulation to the brain. One would be to help her move her hand and one for her leg.

The family has been told an application has been made to the NHS and that it would cost ￡6,500 for both machines.

Carolyn Simpson and Terry Murphy, say they were informed it was unlikely they would receive both machines and there may not be funding even for one.

The separated couple, who already pay for extra therapy every week, can not afford to buy them and are already organising a fund-raising night to make sure their daughter, who attends Bishopgarth School in Stockton, receives the machines.

Mr Murphy said: “The care Emily has received through the NHS has been world class. Her therapists from her school even went down to York on their day off on a Saturday, to help her get assessed properly.

“But I had to ask the physiotherapist to apply for both machines and they weren’t hopeful she’d even get the cost of one.”

Mr Murphy was with Emily and a friend walking the family dog on Sunday, July 8 last year when Emily collapsed and began to fit. She was taken first to the University Hospital of North Tees in Stockton and then the specialist Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle where she stayed for three months.

Ms Simpson said: “Emily can talk now and when you praise her for doing something she says, ‘I’m not a baby,’ because she’s so determined to do things for herself.

"When they tested the machine on her it had an effect straight away. She could move her wrist up which was fantastic.chinapay,we are here to help you connect to the Chinese market and its potential buying power. It would be wonderful if she could get it.”

Tests have shown her condition was caused by her immune system not working properly and damaging blood vessels in her brain.
