Mum describes nearly dying as car flipped across three lanes on the M5

A mum has described the moment she almost died after her car rolled across three lanes on the M5 and nearly fell down a 15-foot drop. But Paige Woodhouse has now shocked doctors by learning to walk again following her horrific injuries.

Paige, now 28, badly wounded her leg after colliding with a fence pole in 2017 - just a week before her 23rd birthday. She was told by doctors at the time that her leg might have to be amputated, that she would be in a wheelchair for the rest of her life and that she would "never be able to walk again."

But, five years later - after a total of seven months in hospital and five operations - brave Paige regularly uses the gym and has retrained her leg to walk again. The mum-of-one is speaking out now to encourage others to "always pick yourself back up, no matter what".
