The courts finally delivered the verdict we fought so hard to achieve. My recovery has been a long and brutal road but knowing justice has been served brings a peace I never thought possible. Thank you for staying by my side while I relived the worst day of my life …

The Day That Changed My Life :
On the 13th of March 2017 I was walking but up to college from the town centre (On The Pavement) . Suddenly a car smashes through the bus stop leaving it shattered and hurling towards me hitting me at approximately 30-40 MPH . The car showed no sign of breaking and no skid marks were visible on the scene , I was dragged along in the grill of the car and when the car eventually came to a halt the side of the bus stop landed on me . My friend who was luckily with me managed to pick this side of the bus stop off of me but the damage was already dealt . 25ft down the road I tried to get strength to climb to my feet but the pain was so excruciating . I fell to the floor again , the blood rushing all around me , struggling to breathe , Fighting for my life ! The injuries I sustainedly from this were : An open fracture to my right tibia, 4 breaks to my collar bone and severe dislocation , a left punctured lung and a shatter to my right ankle along with some very severe lacerations .
Operations : I had to have an operation for my right leg to insert a titanium rod along with 3 screws . This operation was meant to last for 2 hours , 4 hours later I left theatre . I had stopped breathing part way through the surgery and was an inch away from loosing my life .
1 week later : cannot make it to the bathroom , cannot wash or dress on my own , having panic attacks frequently , flashbacks , unbearable pain , struggling to breathe , etc .
These pains are still with me now (6 months later) , I cannot walk unaided I have to rely on my crutch , I am having hydrotherapy to try to sort out weight bearing and gain strength in my right leg . I had to have mental help I couldn't sleep and still struggle to now .
The Woman who hit me was a drug abusing driver , she was on Cocaine , morphine , heroin and methodone . The amount of drugs in this woman's system was so high that it was off the scale and had to be rounded down . The point of this petition is due to the fact in court the woman was handed a 2 year suspended sentence due to the fact she has children , a sentence is meant to be a deterrent but the judge let her walk away with community service , a 2 year suspended sentence and 3 month tag .
My Mum was so close to loosing her son out of no fault of my own but yet a woman who uses class A drugs gets away with nearly destroying a family just so she can be with hers.
The aim of the petition is to try to show that justice was not served and that we won't go down without a fight . I have contacted the local MP and have put together an appeal but with the help of the public and keeping it in the spotlight I feel we can make a difference .
Please consider putting your name down . Thank you !

Seeing the count climb toward one hundred names reminds me that I do not have to carry the memory of that day alone. Please take a moment to post this link on your own social media pages so we can hit that benchmark and force their attention onto what happened to me.

Seeing the numbers climb reminds me that I am not fighting alone for what happened to me. We are nearly at one thousand signatures but I need you to pass this link to someone new so the people in charge finally pay attention. My recovery is still a daily battle and I need your help to keep this momentum going.

How can you let this woman get away with this? You are making it easy for other drug addicts to follow in her footsteps. To see her walking away from court smoking something made my blood boil! Josh will not be walking anywhere for a long time.
This is a travesty..How can the damage/suffering that this woman has caused only merit that sentence.Having children does not disqualify her from justice.In fact why has she got care and control of children when she is dosed up on illegal drugs??
Absolutely disgusting how lenient this sentence was. She chose to take drugs and drive, there is no excuse. A decent mother would not have made this choice and another mother almost lost her son because of it. She should be in jail and her children in care.
Josh, I missed the accident by only a few moments, I also seen this woman juncked up around st clares, load of nonsense story she has given. Your mum is also our postie and I spoke to her via facebook to express my shock. Keep up your strength
I am absolutely outraged that this injustice has occurred. That poor boy will live with his injuries for the rest of his life, and she gets off with a suspended sentence. It's disgusting, and I know a lot of people in the town feel the same.
This event came up in conservation earlier. It still angers a lot of people. There's no way the druggie lady handed in a bag of drugs. She would have stole them, which set gang after her, resulting in innocent lad nearly being killed....but, wait wait...she's female with children! So gets off. Makes me want to vomit.
you had no justice disgusting

I saw the defendant walking through Penzance last week, drinking a can of Special Brew without a care in the world. Where is the justice in that? She has not changed her ways and shows no remorse, the Judge should have served her with a far more appropriate sentence!
