New mum suffers brain damage and catastrophic memory loss just moments after delivering newborn twins

New mother Charlotte Fairlie had just moments with her newborn twin sons before she suffered a stroke so devastating she forgot she had ever even been pregnant.

The 34-year-old first-time parent was left with extensive brain injuries and was partially paralysed down one side after giving birth to healthy twin boys at Nevill Hall Hospital, Abergavenny.
The effect was so dramatic she was left with no memory of her wedding and could not remember being pregnant with children Fox and Teddy.
Husband Rob, who is caring for her at their home in Monmouth, said he will do whatever it takes to help her become the mother she always dreamed of being.
"It breaks my heart seeing her like this.Charlotte needs 24/7 care and how much better she will get we don't know but she was so desperate to be a mum and I want to help her do that." Rob, 40, said he and Charlotte had just a few moments together with their longed-for newborns before she had a stroke caused by pregnancy complication pre-eclampsia.
"She just started to slur her words and couldn't move her left side.
"It went from caesarean to crash team."
The young mother, who had been monitored for high blood pressure before the birth, was rushed to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff where doctors had to remove part of her skull to save her life after two further brain bleeds.
