Rachel Elliot was one of three people who sustained injuries in an early morning accident on August 19 that claimed the lives of two 20-year-old men who have been identified as Shiva Devine and Conall McAleer. Her injuries she received were life-changing injuries to her brain, pelvis and back that resulted from her being thrown from a Peugeot 306 that slammed into a wall and a lamppost in Bundoran.

Donna had described the days following her Rachel’s surgery as “living a nightmare”.

“It's heart-wrenching seeing her there and you can't do anything.”

The two others that were injured in the accident were also reported as being seriously injured.
