Hi there, my name is Jasmine, I'm 22 years old and recently graduated as an actor from Drama School. Before I start my training (2months to be exact) I went for my 'final' open heart surgery, where I was given two metal valves, aortic and mitral valve replacements. I recovered in the 2months and start my intensive training, on warfarin. To call it a miracle was an understatement. It was truly magnificent what the Doctors and Surgeons did for me and I told myself one day I would thank them. Now, I'm not a mathematician, a surgeon, a business person or someone who is earning alot of people, so I can't pay them back for wha they did. But I can tell stories. I am a story teller. So I guess I could write about them? So that's what I want to do. I want to write my story down, perform it, and share it around the UK so that people understand the wonder of what humans can do. And recently with all the stigma and negativity that comes towards the NHS what better time to tell these stories. But I don't want to just tell my story, I want to collect other people's experiences too. And that's where you come in. If you have someone in your life that changed it for the better, or for the worse, a Doctor or Nurse who you admire, a teacher or friend that stuck through it with you, people who perhaps made you feel weak, or silly for having a condition (believe me I've had my fair lot of people telling me to 'man up') I would love to hear from you. All the research will be kept confidential. Please get in contact if you would like me to send you some of the research I am doing for this project. Thanks for reading !
