Ruby had a severe reaction to the HPV vaccine in 2014. In 2016 she became almost completely paralysed except for her left hand. She has battled back and after intense physio she can now walk a few meters occasionally.

The worst symptom from the vaccine injury is living in chronic and accute pain. After 5 years now it’s taken its toil and has given her serious mental health issues.

Ruby is now feeling suicidal her local mental health unit kept her safe from suicide but couldn’t offer any therapy. She has had private therapy at the Priory but funds have now run out. We feel this is the last hurdle in her recovery and therapy is essential for this.

Ruby is 18 years old and desperate for help.
