Perry Cross was only 19 when, in the course of a rugby tackle, the unthinkable happened.
“At 19, you think you’re bullet-proof and I was just cruising through life. When I got injured it was that wow factor of just how profound injury is: it’s like switching off the lights when you get injured. You lose that feeling, that movement, instantly.
“When I got injured I lay there on the ground, I looked up at the sky, and I knew straight away what had happened. You don’t have to be a neurologist to understand that when you break your neck you’ve done something pretty bad.
“So I just lay there and looked up at the sky and thought to myself, oh my god, my life has just changed forever.”
