Leah Napolitano, now 19, received about $26,000 from Thorpe Park's insurance company for the accident, but said it “ruined" her teenage years. “The pain is life changing,” Napolitano, who endured years of physical therapy and missed school, told SWNS. “I haven’t reached my potential because of this,” she told SWNS. “I would swap [the money] to get the last few years of my life back without a doubt. A spokesperson for the park told SWNS her claim was “analyzed by the company’s insurers, and after thorough consideration of the evidence submitted, an offer of compensation was made to Ms. Napolitano, which she accepted as full and final settlement.”
