Have you ever noticed how the words, "Be careful", so naturally come out of your mouth? 

Especially with your children? 

Well, whether or not that is true for you, we can only imagine what this young girl's parents must've felt after an innocent birthday turned into a traumatic experience.

There's something special about turning 21 - and many cultures tend to make a big deal of it. 

A rite of passage almost, when your child has reached a sense of maturity.

For this young woman, who goes by the name Holly Rogers on TikTok, it was a milestone moment.

She posted a video of her 21st birthday and how it started... and then ended in trauma. 

The video shows her having fun with her friends at a jump park, similar to a bounce park with bouncy balls and obstacle courses. 

But what started off as fun, turned dark fast when she shows a clip of herself falling and injuring herself. She ended up in hospital for three weeks - paralysed...

Don't fret, it seems there is a positive ending.
