In 2022, Helen Hide-Wright, from Fenny Compton, suffered a cardiac arrest at the wheel and crashed into a lorry on the other side of the road – breaking “almost every bone” in her body.
Her right arm is still weak where she severed the nerves there and had to have them taken from behind her foot, which has left her without sensation.
Hide-Wright said the surgery she had was “brilliant” but it sounded like the silk device could have given her a better recovery.
“The surgery was brilliant, but what Alex is offering would appear to be far more beneficial, a very exciting opportunity,” she added.
