I was feeling lost and, honestly, very alone — until I came across The Dizzy Moms Club (The DMC). Just seeing that name gave me hope. Other dizzy mums? I’m not the only one? I joined a call, and I never looked back. I’d finally found people who truly understood what I was going through, not just the vestibular struggles, but the emotional load of being a mum at the same time.
I’m Lou, a single mum from the UK. I have PPPD and have lived with migraines for many years. After joining many of the Dizzy Moms support calls, something lit up inside me. It made me want to support other mums here in the UK, too. Now, I’m proud and excited to be the cohost of The DMC – UK Chapter that supports mothers in the UK and throughout Europe. It’s an honour to be part of such a caring, empowering community.
