Olivia Kippen Instagram – one year ago I had a cardiac arrest.
i’ve been told by professionals to say that today is my first birthday, because even though I was born in April, I was reborn on november 25th 2024 when they managed to restart my heart.
this year has been the hardest/best year of my life for so many reasons.
hard, because I’ve had to relearn my entire relationship with my body & trust my body and mind again.
but it’s also been the best year, because it opened my eyes to how much love and support I have and although what happened was a freak accident, I still sit back at the end of the day and can honestly say that I am immensely lucky in life, and I am truly grateful to have these people in my life.
i couldn’t possibly name everyone here, but i will name my partner, Katherine, who never left my side and was there in the trenches of recovery with me every single day.
If there’s one thing I would like anyone to learn from what happened, it’s that the people around you are everything.
most other things are just noise.
see you in another six months when I get inspired to post again ❤️ | Posted on 27/Nov/2025 00:25:46
