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.

Everyone processes trauma differently. Personally I might be laughing and drinking because otherwise I’d be breaking down.
