And I was lying on the ground and I tried to stand up and I couldn't stand up. And I didn't know why I couldn't stand up. And then I looked down and my shoe had come off somewhere. I don't know where it had gone. My shoe had come off, but my leg was dangling like a kind of like a stuffed sock. The bus driver came rushing out and he was like, are you okay?

And I was like, well, no, I think I broke my leg, but it still didn't hurt. And then it was only a little while later that the pain started to come in. The bus driver called 999. So we called the emergency services, but it took nearly an hour for the ambulance to get there because it was a very busy, wet evening. So they was snarled up in traffic.

This incredibly sharp, overwhelming, almost electric pain. And I suppose it's because it's nerve pain, essentially. It's the shards of the bone sawing against the nerve. I've never had the experience before where I would actually scream with pain, but not intend to. It was completely involuntary. I'd feel like screams were being drawn out of me against my will.

Just incredibly agonising, like electrifyingly sharp, overwhelming, blinding pain. You know in a hospital where they ask you, you know, how's the pain on a scale of 1 to 10? My previous 10 was now a 6 on the broken leg scale of 1 to 10.

I'm allergic to one of the most common anesthetic. So they said, we'll try ketamine. I'd never had ketamine before. And I'm sure if you're taking this for recreational purposes, that maybe it's a good time. If you're starting out in a happy state and you're comfortable and relaxed with friends, but if you're starting out in a state of fear and pain, It was terrifying.

It was a really, really terrifying experience. It felt like it lasted about a thousand years. It was... I, you know, had this incredibly vivid hallucinations and I, you know, came to believe at one point that, like, I had... I had ceased to exist, that I no longer existed. And I could feel not pain, but pressure, which obviously in retrospect was pressure on my leg as I tried to set it.

But it felt to me like I was being compressed through, I felt like I was a train being compressed through a train tunnel. And it was this really, really surreal and very frightening experience. And I've had a lot of

flashbacks to that experience since and then after all that it didn't work they tried to set my leg and they put it in plaster but it didn't work so then they said actually after all that we need to do surgery anyway I'm assuming there must have been a very lengthy period of rehab after this much work on your leg Ciara Yeah, so I mean, I couldn't walk at all for several months.
