What you need to know before your trail

When struggling actress Heidi has a life-changing accident aged 32, her world falls apart. Stuck in hospital and unable to walk, her only companion is Maud, the elderly lady in the bed next to hers. Heidi misses her flatmate, her life, her freedom – surely 32 is too young to be an amputee?

But when Maud’s aloof but attractive grandson Jack pays a visit to the ward, Heidi realises that her life isn’t over just because it’s different. It might not look like the life she dreamed of, but it’s the one she’s got – and there’s a lot she still wants to tick off her bucket list. With Jack at her side, will Heidi take the first step back to happiness? Or is there one more surprise still in store…?

How to appreciate life to the full – Finding Happy in London

This is an uplifting story of a girl who falls when out jogging. Not expecting more than a bruised knee, she later finds that she has fallen awkwardly and injured her knee, cutting off the blood supply. She has to have her leg amputated. Life as she knows it is over.

That’s when a new journey begins however. It’s a long journey to acceptance and coming to terms with such an event but the real journey is one of emotions and new friendships.

Heartwarming as well as heartbreaking!
