sp
THESE

sp
SEVERE
AND
PAINFUL

THOUGH
THEY
WERE

ARE
ONLY
A

THE

SHE
REMAINED
IN

A

PART
OF
HER
TIME
AT

sp
ONCE
sp
SHE
HAD
RECOVERED

FULL
CONSCIOUSNESS
sp
IT
sp
BECAME
CLEAR
THAT
SHE
HAD
ENTIRELY
sp
LOST
sp
THE
POWER
OF

sp
LATER
IT
HAD
TO
BE
ACCEPTED
sp
THAT
SHE
WOULD
BE
WHEELCHAIR
BOUND
FOR
THE
REST
OF
HER
LIFE
sp
EFFECTIVELY
THEREFORE
SHE
sp
CAN
NEITHER
sp
WALK

AND
SHE
IS
ALWAYS
sp
GOING
TO
NEED
TWENTY
FOUR
HOUR
CARE
sp
FOR
THE

OF
sp
HER
LIFE
sp
SHE
IS
NOW
AGED
sp
TWENTY

THERE
IS
A
NORMAL

EXPECTATION

THAT
IS
A
LIFE
EXPECTATION

OF
A
FURTHER
FIFTY

YEARS
sp
TO
THE

THE

AS

WELL
AS
AN
O
LEVEL
IN

AT

THE
sp
TIME
OF
THE
ACCIDENT
sp
I
SHOULD
NOTE
HERE
THAT
THERE
IS
A
DISPUTE
sp
BETWEEN
THE
PARTIES

AS
TO
WHETHER
SHE
WOULD
IN
FACT
OBTAIN
THE
GRADES
sp
NECESSARY
TO

TAKE

SHE
WAS
A

MADE
MANY

THE

ADD

A

OF

WHAT

ONE
CAN
DEDUCE
sp
AS
TO
THE
DAILY
ROUTINE
sp
THE
PLAINTIFF
CAN
GIVE
A
LITTLE
ASSISTANCE
TO
THOSE
WHO
DRESS
HER

AND
WHEN
SHE'S
GOT
OUT

SHE
CAN
STAND

SHE
CAN
MANOEUVRE
HER

NOT
WITHOUT
THE
OCCASIONALLY
sp
SHUNT
sp
AND
COLLISION
sp
SHE
CAN
BE
GOT
sp
WITH
sp
DIFFICULTY
sp
AND
THE
USE

OF
A

LIFT
sp
OUT
TO

THE
CAMPERVAN
THE
sp
FA
sp
THE
sp
FAMILY

THE

IS
NOT

NOR
IS
sp
THE
ENTRY
INTO

THE
CAMPER
sp
CAMPER
VAN
sp
UP
A
RAMP
sp
SHE
COMMUNICATES
BASICALLY
BY
USING
A

COMMUNICATOR
sp
WHICH
sp
TYPES
OUT
WHAT
SHE
WANTS
TO
sp
SAY
ONTO
sp
TICKER

WHICH
SHE
THEN
TEARS
OFF
sp
AND
HANDS
TO
sp
THE
PERSON
TO
WHOM
SHE
WANTS
TO
sp
TALK
sp
THIS
sp
IS
HER
METHOD
OF
COMMUNICATION
sp
SHE
USES
HER
LEFT
HAND
MAINLY
TO
TAP
THE
KEYS
sp
AND
IT
IS
sp
NECESSARILY
A
sp
SLOW
PROCESS
sp
SHE
HAS
NO
POWER
sp
OF
SPEECH
REMAINING
TO
HER
sp
SHE
ALSO
HAS
AN
sp
ACORN
COMPUTER
sp
AND
TYPES
sp
VERY
MANY
LETTERS
ON
sp
IT
I
HAVE
sp
READ
sp
TWO
TYPED

BRACKETS
sp
SEE
PAGES
TWENTY
TO
TWENTY
sp
TWO
CLOSED
sp
BRACKETS
sp
THOSE
STATEMENTS
sp
WERE
A
TESTAMENT
sp
TO
THE
LIFE
AND
SPIRIT
THE

sp
HAS
sp
WITHIN

HER
THE
FIRST
IS
NINE
sp
PAGES
OF
sp
TYPED
sp
SCRIPT
AND
TOOK
HER
SEVENTEEN
HOURS
sp
TO
sp
DO
sp
I
HAVE
ALSO
sp
HAD
A
SHORT
sp
CONVERSATION
WITH
sp
HER
IN
sp
COURT
sp
USING
THE
MEDIUM
OF
HER
CANNON
COMMUNICATOR
sp
AND
ITS
sp
TICKER
sp
TAPE
sp
AT

SHE
ALSO
USES
THE
ACORN
COMPUTER
sp
TO
PLAY
A
NUMBER
OF
COMPUTER
GAMES
sp
INCLUDING
GOLF
WITH
HER
FATHER
sp
HER
GREATEST
INTEREST
SEEMS
sp
TO
BE
IN
WRITING
AND
RECEIVING
LETTERS
sp
AND
SHE
WATCHES
sp
TELEVISION
sp
PLAYS
MUSIC
sp
AND
READS
sp
USUALLY
MAGAZINES
NOT
sp
BOOKS
sp
IT
IS
sp
CLEAR
THAT
SHE
WILL
NEVER
MARRY
sp
AND
sp
HAVE
CHILDREN
sp
FOLLOW
A
CAREER
sp
ENJOY
sp
THE
LEISURE
sp
INTERESTS
OF
HER

AGE
sp
GROUP
sp
OR
OTHERWISE
sp
ENJOY
THE
QUALITY
OF
LIFE
sp
WHICH
SO
MANY
TAKE
FOR
GRANTED
sp
IT
IS
ALSO
sp
CLEAR
sp
THAT
THOUGH
sp
THE
ACCIDENT
MAY
HAVE
sp
SLIGHTLY
sp
LOWERED
HER
I
Q
sp
SHE
REMAINS
AN
INTELLIGENT
YOUNG
LADY
WHO
IS
FULLY
AWARE
OF
EVERYTHING
THAT
SHE
HAS
LOST
sp
BUT
DETERMINED
sp
NOT
TO
DWELL
ON
THAT
LOSS
sp
THE
FACT
THAT
SHE
sp
HAS
sp
FOUGHT
sp
BACK
TO
THE
LEVEL
THAT
SHE
HAS
NOW
ATTAINED
sp
IS
A
TRIBUTE
sp
TO
sp
THE
LOVING
CARE
sp
ENCOURAGEMENT
sp
AND
INSPIRATION
sp
GIVEN
HER
BY
HER
PARENTS
sp
NOT
ONLY
sp
SINCE
SHE
CAME
sp
HOME
IN
NINETEEN
sp
NINETY
sp
BUT
IN
THE
THREE
LONG
YEARS
WHEN
SHE
WAS
HOSPITALISED

MR
PETER
{GAP_ANONYMIZATION_NAME}
THE
sp
CONSULTANT
ORTHOPAEDIC

WHO
TENDED

FIRST
IMMEDIATELY
AFTER

AT

sp
AND
THEREAFTER
IN
THE
YEAR
sp
FROM

NINETEEN
EIGHTEEN
EIGHT
sp
AS
WELL
AS
SEEING
HER
FROM
TIME
TO
sp
TIME
SINCE
sp
HAD
sp
THIS
TO
sp
SAY
ABOUT
HER
PARENT'S
EFFORTS
sp
QUOTE
sp
I
THINK
THAT
WITHOUT
THEIR
CONSTANT
SUPPORT
AND
STIMULATION
sp
AND
THEIR
DETERMINATION
THAT
ANNA
JANE
WOULD
sp
FUNCTION
AGAIN
AS
A
RATIONAL
HUMAN
sp
BEING
sp
THERE
IS
EVERY
CHANCE
sp
THAT
ANNA
JANE
sp
WOULD
HAVE
REMAINED
sp
PERMANENTLY
INSTITUTIONALISED
sp
I
THINK
sp
THEIR
GREATEST
ACHIEVEMENT
sp
WAS
TO
REALISE
sp
THAT
DESPITE
THE
sp
FACT
THAT
sp
SHE
WAS
UNABLE
TO
sp
SPEAK
sp
SHE
WAS
sp
STILL
ABLE
TO
COMMUNICATE
IN
OTHER
WAYS
sp
BOTH
THE
PARENTS
sp
AND
ANNA
JANE'S
sp
SISTER
sp
WERE
IN
CONSTANT
ATTENDANCE
AT

THE

NURSING

STIMULATING

HER

HELPING
WITH
HER
PHYSIOTHERAPY
sp
AND
SUPPORTING
sp
HER
THROUGH
WHAT
sp
WAS
VERY
PAINFUL
sp
TREATMENT
sp
I
AM
sp
SURE
sp
THAT
sp
WITHOUT
THEIR
CONSTANT
SUPPORT
sp
THE
RESULTS
sp
WOULD
HAVE
BEEN
MUCH
sp
WORSE
sp
THAN
THEY
HAVE

BEEN

THE

CONTRIBUTION

AS

sp
ABSOLUTELY
AMAZING
sp
REALLY
sp
NOT
JUST
WHAT
THEY
DID
TO
HELP
THE
NURSES

ALSO
IN
sp
INSISTING
sp
THAT
SHE
WASN'T

STUPID
sp
SHE
JUST
COULDN'T

TALK

THEY
MADE
IT
CLEAR
TO
THE

DOCTORS
sp
THAT
SHE
COULD
UNDERSTAND

AND
WE
WEREN'T
TO
TREAT
HER
sp
LIKE
A
VEGETABLE

HE
STATED
CORRECTLY
IN
MY
VIEW
THAT
HE
HAD
QUOTE
sp
SEEN
HER
MUCH
sp
MORE
THAN
ANYBODY
ELSE

UNQUOTE

AND
CONFESSED

THAT
WHEN

AS
THAT
OF

sp
SHE
HAS
APPLIED
TO
THE

sp
CENTRE
sp
IN
THE
HOPES
OF
sp
OBTAINING
WORK
EXPERIENCE
IN
HER
CHOSEN

BEFORE

sp
ANNA
UNDERTAKES
ALL
SHE
DOES

WITH
A
DISARMING
CHEERFULNESS
sp
AND
DELIGHTFUL
CHARM
sp
SHE
HAS
A
MOST
ENDEARING
CONSCIENTIOUS
sp
CHARACTER
sp
THROUGHOUT
HER

CAREER
ANNA
HAS
sp
BEEN
INVOLVED
IN
A
PLETHORA
OF

PARTICIPATING
AS
FULLY
IN

TERMS
sp
AS

SHE
HAS
sp
AS
A
SPORTSWOMAN
sp
HAVING
TALKED
SENSIBLY
TO
ANNA
ABOUT

sp
OF

sp
I
AM
CERTAIN
SHE
IS
AWARE
OF
THE
DEMANDS
IT
sp
WILL
MAKE
sp
ON
HER
sp
SHE
SHA
sp
SHE
HAS
ALSO
ASKED
IF
sp
HER
PLACE
sp
COULD
BE
DEFERRED
FOR
A
YEAR
sp
SO
THAT
SHE
MAY
GAIN
AS
MUCH
sp
RELEVANT
EXPERIENCE
AS
sp
POSSIBLE
sp
BEFORE
TAKING
UP
sp
THE

sp
SHE
HAS
sp
CONSIDERED
THIS
sp
MOST
sp
CAREFULLY
sp
AND
ALL
HER
TUTORS
ARE
AGREED
SHE
WOULD
SUIT
THE

COURSE
ADMIRABLY
sp
WE
ARE
sp
CONFIDENT
sp
IN
RECOMMENDING
sp
HER
STRONGLY
sp
TO
sp
YOU
sp
I
SAY
AGAIN
sp
THAT
IT
IS
CLEAR
sp
THOSE
QUALITIES
sp
WOULD
HAVE
BEEN
IDLY
SUITED
sp
IDEALLY
SUITED
sp
TO
sp
THE
CAREER
sp
SHE
sp
WISHED
sp
TO
EMBARK
sp
UPON
sp
AS
sp
TO
WHAT
sp
WOULD
HAVE
sp
HAPPENED
sp
WITHOUT
THE
sp
EVENT
OF
sp
THE
ACCIDENT
sp
IN
HER
A
LEVEL
YEAR
sp
BY
WAY
OF
sp
RESULTS
sp
I
REGRET
I
HAVE
sp
TO
sp
FIND
AS
sp
A
sp
FACT
sp
THAT
SHE
WOULD
sp
NOT
sp
IN
sp
THE
YEAR
OF
sp
HER
ACCIDENT
sp
HAVE
ACHIEVED
sp
THE
GRADES
NECESSARY
sp
FOR
HER
TO
sp
TAKE
UP
A
sp
PLACE
sp
AT
sp
NORWICH
CITY
sp
COLLEGE
sp
I
HASTEN
TO
ADD
HOWEVER
sp
THAT
IN
MY
VIEW
THAT
WOULD
NOT
HAVE
sp
MATERIALLY
ALTERED
sp
HER
ABILITY
TO
GO
ON
sp
TO
GET
A
QUALIFICATION
sp
AND
SUCCEED
IN
sp
HER
CHOSEN
sp
CAREER
sp
I
sp
FIND
sp
THAT
sp
THE
sp
QUALIFICATIONS
sp
SHE
WOULD
HAVE
sp
GOT
sp
WAS
EITHER
THE
DEGREE
SHE
HOPED
FOR
sp
OR
A
HIGHER
NATIONAL
DIPLOMA
sp
FOR
REASONS
WHICH
I
SHALL
sp
NOW
SET
OUT
sp
THE
EVIDENCE
sp
OF
WHETHER
SHE
WOULD
HAVE
TAKEN
UP
sp
HER
PLACE
AT
NORWICH
IN
sp
AUTUMN
NINETEEN
EIGHTY
SEVEN
sp
OR
WOULD
HAVE
TAKEN
A
YEAR
OFF
sp
AND
sp
STARTED
IN

AUTUMN
sp
NINETEEN
EIGHT
EIGHT
sp
IS
EQUIVOCAL
sp
IF
ANYTHING
sp
IT
sp
POINTS
sp
AS
sp
IS
INDICATED
IN
THE
REPORT
I'VE
JUST
sp
READ

TO
THERE
BEING
sp
A

OFF
sp
EQUALLY
SUMS
sp
FOR
LOSS
OF
EARNINGS
IN
THAT
sp
YEAR
sp
ARE
CLAIMED
IN
THE
PLAINTIFF'S
sp
CLAIM
sp
ON
THE
BALANCE
OF
PROBABILITIES
THEREFORE
I
FIND
SHE
WOULD
NOT
HAVE
STARTED
HER
COURSE
UNTIL
AUTUMN
NINETEEN
sp
EIGHTY
sp
EIGHT
sp
THEREBY
sp
FINISHING
HER
DEGREE
sp
COURSE
IN
THE
SUMMER
OF
NINETEEN
NINETY
sp
TWO
sp
I
sp
FIND
ON
THE
BALANCE
OF
PROBABILITIES
THAT
IF
SHE
DID
NOT
ACHIEVE
sp
THE
NECESSARY
RESULTS
sp
FOR
sp
ENTRY
TO
COLLEGE
sp
IN
THE
sp
SUMMER
OF
NINETEEN
EIGHTY
SEVEN
sp
SHE
WOULD
sp
HAVE
ACHIEVED
SUCH
sp
GRADES
BY
sp
USING
sp
THE

SUMMER
NINETEEN
EIGHTY
SEVEN
TO
SUMMER
NINETEEN
EIGHTY
EIGHT
TO
RE
SITE
sp
WHATEVER
WAS
NECESSARY
sp
I'M
SATISFIED
THAT
WITH
sp
HER
PERSISTENCE
AND
THE
LOVING
ENCOURAGEMENT
sp
OF
HER
PARENTS
sp
SHE
WOULD
BY
THEN
HAVE
ACHIEVED

THE
NECESSARY
ENTRANCE

IT
sp
FOLLOWS

THAT
EVEN
BY

sp
SHE
WOULD
AGAIN
sp
HAVE

FINISHED
HER
DEGREE
IN
THE
SUMMER
OF
NINETEEN
sp
NINETY

TWO
sp
IF
I'M
sp
WRONG
sp
AS
sp
TO
THAT
THERE
WAS
ALSO
OPEN
TO
HER
A

FURTHER
ROUTE
sp
TO
sp
A

THAT
sp
WAS
TO

SEVEN
sp
COMPLETING
sp
THE
sp
TWO
YEARS
sp
IN
THE
SUMMER
OF

sp
THE
EVIDENCE
sp
WAS
sp
THAT
IT
sp
WAS
THEN
POSSIBLE
TO
CHANGE
sp
FROM

sp
COURSE
sp
TO
START
THE

ENDED
WITH

I
AM
SATISFIED

THAT

BY

THE

sp
HER
