"I can't put a mark on any day that was the worst. I just felt so poorly. I wasn't even in bed. I just couldn't move off the sofa. "No drink, no phone and people had started asking 'Where's Roha?' The next thing I knew my neighbour, who been keeping an eye on me, and my mum had communicated, I'm on the sofa in and out of consciousness, they knocked my door down and all I could hear was the paramedics saying 'her lips are blue'. Then I'm on a stretcher and in an ambulance."I stayed in hospital for two weeks.
