Teenager fights back

A TEENAGER, who was told she might never walk again following a car crash, was celebrating last night after landing a modelling contract.

Katrina Burgess suffered a broken back, neck, two punctured lungs, several broken ribs and a broken leg in the crash in her home county of Somerset, in January.

Her injuries were so bad that doctors told the 17-year-old she would die without surgery but the procedure could kill or paralyse her.
