‘I basically lost my speech language skills. I didn't know how to communicate' – Dublin star Niamh Crowley on recovery from rare disease
When Niamh Crowley was asked to become an ambassador for the 'I Am Number 17' rare disease awareness campaign, it was the first time she researched the syndrome she suffered as a kid.
After making a full recovery, Crowley (21) moved on with her life. She won her first All-Ireland senior football medal with Dublin two years ago and she'll play in their All-Ireland quarter-final with Cork at Parnell Park tomorrow. She completed an undergrad and is now studying for a master's. She is 10 years seizure-free.
