Biography

Kaiden was born at 38 weeks and had water on his lungs so spent time on oxygen in neonatal care. He was a beautiful, happy baby but wasn’t meeting all his milestones. At 3 years old he was diagnosed with autism and glue ear and spent time wearing hearing aids, despite this he was happy and healthy.

In 2023 Kaiden had what was originally thought to be a fall in school but quickly declined and was air lifted to Noah’s Ark Children's Hospital in Cardiff and was rushed to theatre in a battle to save his life. The fall turned out to be a stroke that was caused by an avm that ruptured. Until this point we didn’t even know what an avm was let alone that Kaiden had one. He had a massive brain bleed and spent weeks between Cardiff and Bristol fighting for his life in picu. Kaiden made it and has since been working hard at rehabilitation as the stroke left him with right-sided weakness and wheelchair dependent. Despite everything he’s progressed so far and is slowly learning to walk again. This journey is long and hard but he continues to be a happy determined little boy.
