On the 31st of October in Chiang Mai, a grade 8 student named Shawronna was on her school camp when she fell off a rented bike into a river. This accident crushed 5 of her vertebrae in her lower back. The cause of the accident was the brakes failing to work causing her to flip over and into the river.
It was an average day at the Traidhos Three Generation Community in Chiang Mai, Thailand when the 8th grade class ReM went out for their scheduled bike ride as part of their camp. Shawronna was cycling towards the back of the group with Jee Jee behind her. As the group turned a corner, Shawronna's brakes failed and she flipped over. She proceeded to tumble down the small but steep hill into the river. For a short moment there was silence then she yelled ‘I’m fine!’.
Many people rushed to her aid, including other students. The bike guide and Mr Erikson pulled her out of the river with the help of other students. ‘My back, it really hurts.’ Shawronna said as they pulled her out. They were quick to call an ambulance. Students were told to go to the front of the group and stay back. The student’s mentor teacher, Mrs Maynard, went with Shawronna in the ambulance.
Shawronna returned back to Singapore on the 3rd of November but remained in hospital until 7th. She will be wearing a back brace for the next 3 months and is unable to carry books or a bag until then.
