A mum was left suddenly paralysed from the waist down while she was having a bath.Jessica Ennis, 30, said she felt "completely helpless" on June 21 after she became unable to move her legs before she was due to take her children to nursery.

The mum-of-two was pulled out of the bath by her mum and taken to hospital.From there, she was diagnosed with functional neurological disorder (FND) – a sudden condition which causes problems with how the brain receives and sends information to the rest of the body, causing serious arm and leg weakness and seizures.

It is often also associated with an accompanying all-over pain.Jessica had been experiencing pain and discomfort all over her body for months before her diagnosis.She told Wales Online: “I felt completely numb when they told me – like my life had been taken away.

I just want to be a mum again, I want to be a wife again, and I want to be Jess again."The previously fit and healthy mum said she is now suffering at least two seizures a day and cannot control her own limbs.
