Thalia and Matt from Cambridgeshire went to school together but their relationship only began after Matt sustained a brain injury. The couple say despite all the challenges they’ve faced, their relationship is constantly evolving, and they work hard to ensure they’re always talking to each other. Here they discuss their love story – from the joys they share together to the difficulties of being a partner and carer.
Thankyou for sharing your story, and I’m so glad support was there for you when
