Her dad Kurum said: “Their journey, the stories of seizures and so on were almost identical so they clicked straight away.To have him keep in touch, to have almost this lifeline from Tom, gave Amani some hope and excitement. “She was a trapped soul, completely isolated because she couldn’t go out during the pandemic when she was sick.Tom was one of the few people battling the same disease she met in person.Their exchanges turned into almost a little conversation piece. “She could say, ‘Oh, me and Tom are friends’.
It gave her so much joy in her last year.” Armani’s mum Yasmin added: “She texted Tom a day before brain surgery. His voice note said: ‘I’d be s******g it! But you’ll be fine. I’m sure of it’.
