Natasha Porter, a 23-year-old woman from Sussex in England was paralyzed after being bitten by a mosquito in Australia.

Initially, it was thought that she had suffered an allergic reaction, but doctors later diagnosed her as suffering from Guillain-Barré syndrome, which leads to the body’s immune system attacking itself.
“I was so scared,” Porters said. “I remember feeling guilty, because I knew I was going to have to call my parents. I was thinking, ‘How do I call them up and say I might be dead in a few hours?’”
Her recovery was gradual and she has now regained full feeling. Porter plans to continue traveling the world and wants to enjoy as much as possible.
