    A Christchurch woman's determined to walk again, after a paragliding accident left her in a wheelchair

    A Christchurch woman's determined to walk again, after a paragliding accident left her in a wheelchair


    Hayley-Marie Bushby was critically injured when her paraglider crashed on the Port Hills in February.

    It left her with a broken back, pelvis, and life-threatening internal bleeding.

    Bushby's planning to travel to America for a treatment combining stem cell therapy with intensive physical therapy - which could help restore mobility.

    She's launched a Give a Little page to raise money for the 50-thousand dollar treatment, saying she's determined to restore her independence.
