Sam Bloom was on the roof of her hotel, 18 months ago, when she leant on the railing and it collapsed.

The accident left her paralysed from the waist down.

Once incredibly active and independent, she now relies on her three sons and husband to help her do everyday tasks. Still, she has found ways to do the things she loves, and her story is incredibly moving.

Mia Freedman talked to Sam and her husband about their life, and she sums up this couple perfectly. “They’re amazing, amazing.”
