'I thought I would never play an instrument again'
"I used to play instruments all the time and then I thought that was over for me, but actually it was only beginning."
Christine Williamson is speaking about her life before she had a brain aneurism.
It caused her to lose some function on the left side of her body.
The Dundonald woman feared she would never play a musical instrumental again, but that changed when she joined a unique group.
Christine has been part of a music research programme at local charity, Brain Injury Matters.
The research based in Northern Ireland uses Virtual Reality (VR) to allow disabled musicians to play specially-designed virtual instruments.
The project is a collaboration between Queen's University Belfast and Drake Music Northern Ireland.
