Mum got married before waking up five days later unable to see View 3 Images

A mum says she woke five days after her dream wedding to find herself partially blind. Chelsea Shields, from Doncaster, South Yorkshire, is just 28 years old, but says she feels more like 90 as she battles a condition called functional neurological disorder (FND).

Her nightmare began in August when she woke up unable to see out of her right eye, just five days after tying the knot with husband Connor, 34. Doctors feared she might have multiple sclerosis (MS) as her vision deteriorated further, including in the other eye.

Within days she was in hospital, unable to walk, in excruciating pain and left catheterised as she said it felt like her body was "giving up". Chelsea now relies on crutches to move around.
