The video is about a young woman named Lauren Doy who was paralyzed in a car accident when she was 20 years old.Lauren is now sharing her story to raise awareness about road safety.
The video starts with Lauren and her friend Rebecca being interviewed on the talk show This Morning. Lauren recounts the night of the accident. She had been out with friends and was walking home when she stepped out into the road and was hit by a delivery van. She suffered a broken pelvis, wrist, and neck, and was left paralyzed from the neck down.
Lauren spent 16 months in the hospital, including 3 weeks in intensive care. She was told that she would never breathe independently again and would always need to be on a ventilator. However, Lauren was determined to prove them wrong.She worked hard in therapy and eventually was able to breathe on her own most of the time.
After leaving the hospital, Lauren lived with her parents for six years. However, she eventually moved into her own bungalow. Lauren met her friend Rebecca, who co-founded a complex care company, through her care. Rebecca was impressed by Lauren's determination and positive attitude, and encouraged her to share her story with others.
Lauren and Rebecca now give talks about road safety to all ages, from primary school children to prison inmates. Lauren enjoys sharing her story and feels that it gives her a sense of purpose. She believes that her story is important because it shows the consequences that can result from making poor decisions.
The video ends with Lauren and Rebecca encouraging viewers to never give up on their dreams. Lauren says that her motto is "Never Say Never" because sometimes the impossible is possible.
