Jess Lalumiere was driving home late one night from a dream job as a chef that she had recently started. She was minutes away from her house on a quiet road, when an oncoming car seemed to be driving at speed on the wrong side of the road. Before Jess could react, she would find herself involved in a huge head on collision, that would turn her world upside down! It was just these two cars on the road, with no one else in sight for miles around. This episode is jaw dropping and we should ward you, does go into some of the gruesome details of the accident, but then concentrates on the aftermath and the following weeks and months as Jess dealt with both the physical and mental trauma. This is an extraordinary story of total terror, panic, bravery, courage and survival instincts, and as we hear, the accident was just the beginning.
