FIVE years ago, sports mad Paul Stewart was sent plummeting off a 200ft cliff by an avalanche at La Plagne in the French Alps.
The life-changing fall damaged Paul’s spinal cord and left him paralysed from the waist down.
Doctors told him he would never walk again.
Today, Paul is still paralysed below the knees but after years of gruelling rehabilitation he can walk with the aid of walking sticks, despite having no feeling or sensation as he takes each step.
