Summary
Lily Nichol, a 15-year-old from County Durham, is in serious condition after a paraglider struck her while she was dining with family in Turkey.
She suffered severe injuries, including a broken jaw, spine fractures, and a brain bleed, necessitating multiple surgeries totaling £45,000.
Her mother hadn’t purchased travel insurance, leaving the family to cover mounting medical costs, currently at £7,200.
They have launched an online fundraiser for Lily’s care. The British Embassy is assisting the family, and Lily’s surgery is scheduled for Monday.
Probably outside, yeah. Do any of those details really matter though? You’d usually think the paraglider would have some sort of insurance that would cover these bills though. What happened to the paraglider? Why did they crash?
Right, I want to know what happened to the paraglider too.
I didn’t find much more info, but there’s this
