Allana Crew was on the phone to her dad back in 2019 when she felt "something go" in her brain. She was a 32-year-old, healthy mum of two, who didn't drink or smoke. She had never imagined that she would suffer a stroke.

A telehealth link called Telestroke connected her with a stroke specialist in Melbourne, hours away from her home in Gippsland. The doctor was able to identify Allana's unclear symptoms through a screen, from 150km away.
