Avy Berry, who has starred in the Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks, as well as a recent Hollywood blockbuster, suffered a stroke after having the chicken pox
A young girl who was temporarily paralysed after suffering a stroke has made her Hollywood debut. Six year old Avy Berry, who experienced both a mini stroke and a full-blown stroke requiring brain surgery, is believed to have sustained the brain injury after contracting chickenpox a few months earlier.
"She can't even watch herself doing it. But for me, it's really special that she's on at the cinema. It's quite special that it's worldwide because there's people from all over the world who will watch my little daughter so it's quite surreal." There, scans revealed the frightening truth: Avy had suffered a mini stroke and required immediate medication, later undergoing brain surgery in October to improve blood flow. Opening up about the ordeal, Fearne shared, "She is on high-dose blood thinners now but that was 18 months ago and she's been stroke free since which we are really pleased about. You wouldn't even think that she's normal.
Despite the harrowing experience, Avy, who began acting at age four, finds joy in her craft. Fearne says her daughter loves the creativity and interaction, enjoying 'playing' and chatting with 'all the people on set.
