It’s spring 2021.
Jack Hurn, at just 26 years of age, is settling into his dream life. He’s a first-class graduate with an automotive design degree. He’s got everything going for him; he’s compassionate, creative, vibrant and healthy.
He lives with his girlfriend Alex in their new home in Redditch, Worcestershire (U.K.), one they’ve just bought. Jack’s planning to pop the question, and they’re both eager to start a family. Jack has no idea what’s around the corner.
The shine on Jack’s life starts wearing thin as he begins to deal with pounding headaches. These started just a few days after getting his first COVID-19 injection. But it gets worse, much worse.
Alex and his family see Jack disintegrate before them. Scans reveal a clot and numerous bleeds on the brain. Hours later, catastrophe ensues. Jack falls into a coma with dense right hemiplegia (paralysis on his right side).
