'Brain injury after Covid-19 stole my daughter'

Adele Wilson-Hope, from Ingleby Barwick, Stockton, said her daughter Bella had been "perfectly healthy" until contracting the disease aged 17 in July 2022.

She got "progressively worse" over the following 10 months, until she was partly diagnosed with autoimmune encephalitis, external - an inflammation of the brain.

Now, Bella is supported by Matrix Neurological who Adele says has given her a sense of being normal.
