Rachel Friedman told reporters that before the devastating accident, she lived the life of an ordinary young girl: she made plans for the future, had fun with friends and dreamed of children. A month before the wedding, Rachel arranged a bachelorette party for close friends. One of the girl’s girlfriends pushed her into the pool for fun.

The girl recalls how she felt a strong push in the neck. In the midst of the party, Friedman was taken to the hospital. “I got into the stroller a month before my marriage,” the girl said.

“I hesitated for a long time to call my boyfriend Chris. Finally I called him and said that I could not walk, ”admitted Rachel. Despite the new circumstances, Chris turned out to be a real man and was not afraid to take on such responsibility.

The couple got married a year after the incident. After 4 years, the surrogate mother endured the couple’s daughter Kaylie.

Chris and Rachel have been happily married for over 10 years, proving by example that true love has no barriers.
