Chris Walmsley now cared for at home
The mother of a Ballasalla man who defied all odds after an accident has opened up about the family's strength, ten years after their lives changed forever.
Chris Walmsley was left paralysed after being struck by a car on Richmond Hill in 2006.
He was initially given a slim chance of survival by doctors.
But fundraising and dedication allowed Chris to receive residential care and pioneering stem cell therapy in Germany.
Now approaching his 40th birthday, he's living a happy life being cared for at home.
His mum Carol says it's been a tumultuous decade:
Disruption at Ronaldsway airport following incident with light aircraft
Hopes for better working relationship between government and hospitality sector
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
Public servants killed in the line of duty eligible for new award
Multi-million pound Villiers development recommended for approval
Rosalind Ranson row draws to a close
