Ella Ferguson's Journey to Recovery & Rediscovery
Please pardon our progress! This website is still under construction.
Ella Ferguson is a 30-year-old Atlanta native with a story of resilience, creativity, and determination. In 2021, she suffered a life-altering AVM stroke, leading to a severe brain hemorrhage. Thanks to emergency surgery and her indomitable spirit, Ella began an inspiring journey of recovery.
As she continues to recover, Ella is reconnecting with her passions for art and music. Before her stroke, she was known for her creativity, both as a visual artist and a musician. She plays multiple instruments, including guitar, mandolin, and fiddle. While she works to regain full use of her left hand, Ella has started drawing and painting again, expressing her journey and resilience through her art.
Ella was partway through her degree in art education at Georgia State University when her stroke happened. Her goal now is to complete that journey and become an art teacher, inspiring others with her story and her art. This pursuit is about sharing her experience, raising awareness, and giving back to her community.
Through Stroked to Be Here, Ella aims to raise awareness about strokes, share effective treatments, and provide insights into her recovery journey. Rehabilitation requires resources beyond insurance coverage. Your support can help her access the advanced therapies she needs.
