Five-year-old Tilli, from Suffolk, is one of 400 children to have a stroke in the UK every year.
It was just two weeks after her fifth birthday when Tilli had a stroke at school, out of the blue.
When Tilli initially came round at James Paget University Hospital in Gorleston, Norfolk, she was "walking properly and talking properly... The hospital told us at first she hadn't had a stroke, it was a huge relief," Zak says."They said the first one at the school was the beginning of a stroke and it was a full one at the hospital," he adds. "The second was really bad, her face had gone and everything, and she didn't even try to talk.
Tilli has had tantrums in the shops when she has not been able to get an item she wants and she "throws stuff on the floor, pulls my hair and hits me".Tilli's speech is returning and she can walk again but she drags her right foot, and although she can grab with her hand, she cannot open her hand again.
