What backs it

Clara Simpson, injured in a March 2025 car crash that fractured her vertebrae and required spinal surgery, has recovered enough mobility and strength to play her cello again after months of physiotherapy and speech-language therapy for a damaged vocal cord.

Worth noting

Her recovery is ongoing and incomplete; she still experiences delayed pain and cannot yet return fully to teaching or performing.
