In a fateful incident on July 20, 2017, Rory’s life took an unexpected turn when a car careened onto the pavement at an alarming speed, striking him from behind and catapulting him 30ft into the road. The driver callously fled the scene, leaving Rory in critical condition.
By a stroke of luck, Dr. Matt Mak, a consultant with London’s Air Ambulance, happened to be in the vicinity of Clapham, heading to lunch, when he witnessed the horrifying accident unfold before his eyes.
