Bride Suffers Broken Back On Honeymoon

An urgent campaign set up to raise the 16,000 needed to bring home a newlywed bride after she broke her back in three places whilst on honeymoon has been successful.

Carrie Anne Dudbridge is said to have broken her back in three places after slipping and falling twenty foot from her hotel room balcony. The terrible accident occurred just a few days after the couple got married and set off on their honeymoon- which had been a surprise organised by guests.

After news of the accident broke Carrie Anne’s friends and family set up a campaign to raise the 16,000 needed to fly her home in a specially equipped air ambulance. The appeal has now been successful and Carrie Anne will return home soon. The appeal was also announced on the football team Millwall FC’s website.

News today has reported that the target 16,000 has been raised meaning the couple can return home. One particularly generous donor submitted 5000 to the cause.

The couple found themselves stranded in Corfu after they failed to take out travel insurance and thought that the E111 European health card would cover them.

The E111 card guarantees the same level of medical care as a local resident of all European countries but the card does not make allowances for travel.

Mr Dundridge has told of how his wife simply went onto the balcony after they returned to their room form a restaurant. She was said to have felt light headed due to the heat.

“We had literally just got married and only had another day of our honeymoon before coming home,” he told the media.

Medical staff have said that Carrie Anne is mainly sleeping at the moment but when she is returned to England it is understood she will undergo an operation. It is understood that at least one of the fractures she has suffered is thought to be serious although doctors do not expect her to be left paralyzed.
