Nigel Glockler of Saxon's Fundraiser
Fundraising for SameYou
Story
As some of you may know, in December 2014 my husband, Nigel Glockler, drummer for the British Heavy Metal Band Saxon, suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm.
Ruptured brain aneurysms are fatal in about 50% of cases. Of those who survive, about 66% suffer some permanent neurological deficit.
Approximately 15% of people with a ruptured aneurysm die before reaching the hospital. Most of the deaths are due to rapid and massive brain injury from the initial bleeding.
Nigel wasn't expected to survive, let alone ever play drums again. But he was back behind his kit and on tour in 4 months - his doctors called it a miracle!
We have created a special t shirt and luxury candle, and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Same You, a charity set up by Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, who also survived brain aneurysms.
This charity supports rehabilitation and more for brain injury survivors.
