Guest Lucie Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hi All, Just thought I'd let you know that my story is in Love it magazine at the moment. It's pretty cheesy (written in first person, but not by me!) but I did what I wanted to do in highlighting young people suffering from this and how it can be perceived by professionals as just a migraine or drink spiking due to my age. Have even had my first piece of fan mail from a girl who said how brave I was ha ha! Bring on Fern and Phil x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennissmithy Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hi Lucie, Hope you are keeping well? I will buy it tomorrow so I can have a read! Well done- I keep saying the same about highlighting that it happens to young people too! Love and hugs Laura xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lucie Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm great thanks Laura. Hope you're good, haven't been on here much recently, so am catching up on a night in. It's on page 27, was really embarrassed for the first few days and didn't tell anyone apart from my family, but my dad told me I should be proud, so there you go! Happy reading! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lucie Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 They were ok actually, I was very strict about not signing until I;d had my read through. They did embellish a few things but I made them change those. I wasn't so keen on them taking the "mistaken spiked drink route" but it was true. Guess they're always going to want to dramatise it. Still, it's good to get the awareness Hey LucieI'll nip out and buy it. My story was in Love It a couple of years back and sincerely hope they treated your story with more respect than they treated mine.

Ann Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 All the best Lucie, enjoyed the story, you were/are so young!I have a daughter your age and would be so scared if that happened to her. At least you were close to Hope Hospital which is a centre of excellence for SAH. Really well done on being able to return to your degree so quickly and all the best Thanks for e mailing the story Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
