Eamonn said, "Today we have an update from Holly who got on a plane at the weekend…”

Revealing a happy picture of Holly on the plane, Ruth read out Holly’s update. It said, "I felt so much more relaxed. I could look out of the window without seeing the ground coming towards me!"

Eva said, "It’s great to see that she’s done so well. She was blaming aeroplanes for something that they hadn’t done… if you see it for what it is, you can change your perception of it.”
