Jane Bradshaw, 55 and from Stockport, lived a very active and energetic lifestyle.<\/p>\n

\"Man
Jane Bradshaw and her husband Marcus before her injury.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

She loved running – 10ks, half marathons, full marathons, and cycled a lot having done 60-80k bike rides. She had walked all 214 Wainwrights in the Lake District, went on camping trips, and had cycled to the Rhine. She described herself and her husband as always trying not to waste a day and have something in mind to do.<\/p>\n

That all changed on a family holiday, when Jane and her husband, Marcus, took her parents to their favourite holiday destination, Tenerife.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mum has Alzheimer\u2019s and my dad is waiting for a hip operation, so we always go with to help and support them and make sure they have a good time.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe holiday went fine and on the final day, whilst we let my parents pack away their things, Marcus and I decided to go for one final walk down to the harbour. I wish I had never suggested it.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Jane and her husband walked down the harbour\u2019s pier, Jane noticed a large wave building towards the harbour wall.<\/p>\n

\u201cI turned to Marcus and shouted \u2018RUN!\u2019, but it hit us in what felt like an instant.\u201d<\/p>\n

The wave crashed over the pier, scattering the people on top into the ocean, injuring 15 people and killing one.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was so quick I had no idea what had happened. I opened my eyes and I knew I was deep down in the water, but I somehow managed to get to the surface. I could hear a lot of screaming from the side and I panicked and shouted, \u2018where is my husband?\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cPassers-by were jumping into the water to try and rescue people, I saw Marcus fighting the tide by the side of the wall.<\/p>\n

\u201cFortunately, he had rope in his rucksack but the surge was horrific \u2013 one minute you\u2019d be down low and then the surge would push you up really high \u2013 so getting out was still a battle for him. Someone at the top of the 15ft wall caught his rope and pulled him up<\/p>\n

\u201cAs Marcus was pulled out of the water, I tried to swim to the harbour side, but my arm was broken and I was struggling to keep my head above the water.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother man fastened some towels together and dangled them into the water for me to grab and pulled me along the wall to get me to some steps.<\/p>\n

\u201cMarcus implored me to climb out of the water in case there was another wave. I don\u2019t know how I climbed the slimy, slippery steps, it was just adrenaline surging through my body. Once I was out, I collapsed from the pain of my injuries. I couldn\u2019t speak to explain to anybody, I was just in horrific pain.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was carried to an ambulance where, at a local hospital, they said I had a broken humerus in my arm, eight broken ribs with multiple breaks in two of them, hemithorax and pneumothorax, large swelling on my left hip and a massive haematoma on my back.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jane was kept in observation for two days whilst her husband was given stitches for a badly cut arm. She was then moved from the public hospital to a private one when the hospital realised she had health insurance.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn hindsight, that was the worst thing that could have happened to us. When they said I was going to private care I thought \u2018great\u2019 as the image often portrayed to us is that private healthcare is better, but it was shocking and the mental trauma from being treated by them is almost as bad as the physical injuries from the incident itself.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were not used to dealing with multiple traumas and didn\u2019t know how to properly look after my injuries. They made several mistakes and it was incredibly frightening.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were several instances where chest drains were painfully and incorrectly inserted into my body making me feel like I was constantly being stabbed, there were extended periods of time where I saw nobody, there was just a massive lack of care which we\u2019d become accustomed to in the UK. I mean, my husband was having to take my IVs out for me it was that bad.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was in Tenerife hospital for five weeks because the insurance company would not fly us back due to the complication in my lungs which had not been adequately treated by the hospital. Between the insurance company and the hospital, it became a living nightmare.<\/p>\n

Jane was eventually flown to Manchester Airport with a doctor where a waiting ambulance rushed her to Manchester Royal Infirmary\u2019s emergency department and then she was immediately transferred to the hospital’s major trauma ward.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs soon as the plane\u2019s wheels touched the ground, I just sobbed like I had never sobbed before all the way into Manchester Royal Infirmary. The sense of relief knowing I\u2019d be under the care of the NHS was overwhelming; I had never experienced a feeling like it before or since.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe doctor there immediately asked why I had a broken chest drain, it was my first five minutes being there and they had already started to undo some of the appalling care I\u2019d received. I was crying with joy at the pain relief I was already starting to feel.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was given a head-to-toe observation which I never received in Tenerife, it was Manchester Royal Infirmary who discovered my fractured pelvis and sacrum, and I saw more people at the infirmary in 30 minutes than I had my entire time in Tenerife. The level of care and attention to detail was mind-blowing.<\/p>\n

\"Woman

\u201cI will never forget the nurse who helped me take my clothes off and put my gown on, when I left resus to go on a ward, she then offered me a cup of tea and a sandwich, I cried at her kindness and I\u2019m still crying now remembering this gesture. She was so lovely and a complete contrast to my experience before then, that simple gesture is something I will never, ever forget.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe attention to detail and compassion has been crucial in making sure I\u2019m being properly rehabilitated. There was a physio who noted an important error in the Tenerife medical notes. I\u2019d been confused as staff kept asking me how much I liked surfing – the physio mentioned it was in my notes that I had hurt myself in a surfing accident.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was hysterically crying as it dawned on me everyone in the hospital had been thinking I was an avid surfer. The difference was actually quite important, as staff realised that the incident was one that would carry emotional and mental trauma as well as physical damage. From that, the physio went away and organised for me to see a clinical psychologist, who has been amazing and I still see her now alongside my physical rehab work.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe psychotherapy work has been incredibly important, I can\u2019t emphasise that enough. When people have incidents like this, we focus on them being well physically \u2013 but the mental trauma can be just as devastating. I understand now that looking well on the outside and making physical recovery progress is very different from actually getting \u2018better\u2019.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout the physio picking up on that mistake, I wouldn\u2019t have had the same support. I am very, very thankful to a lot of people in there.<\/p>\n

Jane is now supported by the Manchester Institute of Health and Performance, Manchester\u2019s specialist Major Trauma Enhanced Rehab Service (MTERS), where she is offered intensive physiotherapy and trauma focused psychological therapy.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mental recovery is actually the toughest bit. Aside from the incident itself, it was a very depressing experience sitting in the same hospital for five weeks.<\/p>\n

I have cried a lot, I still suffer with PTSD from the incident with flashbacks. I am coming to terms with my body not doing what my brain wants it to do, my arm is still not strong enough, I can almost reach above my head but I can\u2019t reach behind my back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been able to get back on my bike but my level of fitness is gone and I can\u2019t run for now. I look better but I have so much work to do as my head is a mess – I am grieving for the body I used to have who could do all those activities I loved.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to put into words what the work of the NHS has done for me. I can\u2019t thank everybody at Manchester Royal Infirmary and the MTERS enough. I was so supported and so well looked after.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery single member of staff, from the ladies who brought me tea and would sit with me whilst I cried, to the doctors who put my body back together, the level of care from everybody has been phenomenal, I will never be able to thank them enough.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s also been really hard on my loved ones. Marcus has been my absolute rock, a tower of strength. He had to deal with what happened to me and all the logistics.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe lost our phones and glasses in the water, we ended up in different hospitals and didn\u2019t know where the other was. He tracked me down and let my parents and our daughter know, then there was all the endless admin with the airline and insurance.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven when we got home, he still had to care for me and take time off work. My daughter, who was travelling at the time, video called me every day as soon as I got a phone again.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy elderly parents found it tough as it was winter and I\u2019d usually care for them, which meant friends were then helping us out with that. My close friends and family have all been there for me, helping, encouraging and supporting my journey of recovery.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole experience has left me feeling very, very lucky to be surrounded by such kindness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Will Chellam, Clinical Lead for the Major Trauma Service at the Manchester Royal Infirmary, said of the injuries Jane sustained:<\/p>\n

\u201cJane\u2019s case is a great example of what our service does well and how a patient\u2019s recovery is also influenced by their own determination and resilience.<\/p>\n

\u201cExperiences of trauma such as Jane\u2019s can have a devastating impact on a person\u2019s life, whether that\u2019s physically or psychologically. Because we take a holistic approach to recovery, our teams of specialists can focus on their individual areas of expertise and tailor care to provide the best possible outcomes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to see how Jane\u2019s recovery is coming along and to hear the impact our colleagues’ work has had.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
