RugbyPass Exceptional Stories: Henry Fraser

At 17-years-old Henry Fraser was a senior prefect with full colours at the prestigious Dulwich College, in southeast London.

Following in the footsteps of his older brother, Saracens flanker Will Fraser, Henry played his rugby with Saracens academy side.

However, Henry’s world would be turned on its head in the summer of 2009 when on holiday with his friends in Portugal.

The innocuous decision to dive into the water would leave him with a crushed and severed spine.

He found himself floating in the water.

Face down unable to scream for help, Fraser was sure he had taken his last breath.

Fortunately, Henry would be rescued from the water but would never regain movement below his shoulders.

“My life was turned upside down but at some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in the reality… When you get bad news or circumstances change you have to deal with it. You must ‘accept what is and adapt’ because until you do this you can’t move on, and you end up wasting energy wishing things were better”, says Fraser.

“Before my accident my life revolved around being active; it was my release. I was a very keen rugby player, but now that release has transformed into something more creative.”

His transformation would see him become a Sunday Times bestselling author with his memoirs The Little Big Things, which even garnered a foreword from J.K. Rowling.

Henry would also go on to become a mouth artist and a motivational speaker, inspiring others through his own triumph over adversity.

Back in January, I got caught up in a cryptocurrency scam that really turned my life upside down. I invested a jaw-dropping $214,000 in BNB on what I thought was a legitimate crypto site. For a while, everything seemed to be going smoothly, and I was excited about the returns I was expecting. But then, when I tried to withdraw my profits, everything fell apart. The scammers froze my account and demanded more money, claiming I had breached some sort of agreement. I was completely devastated and felt trapped in a nightmare. It got so overwhelming that I started having dark thoughts about ending it all. Thankfully, my family noticed I was struggling and stepped in when I finally opened up about what was happening. During one of our talks, my niece mentioned a group called (Trust Geeks Hack Expert). She had heard they helped people recover their stolen cryptocurrencies, and I was intrigued. I thought, “Could this be my saving grace?” So, I decided to reach out to them and explain my situation in detail. To my surprise, (Trust Geeks Hack Expert) was incredibly responsive and compassionate. They reassured me that they had dealt with cases like mine before and would do everything they could to help. I was a bit skeptical, but I was also desperate for a solution. Amazingly, within about three days if I remember correctly they managed to recover the entire $214,000 that I had lost! I was in shock. It felt like a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders. If you’re reading this and you’ve fallen victim to a crypto scam, I can’t recommend (Trust Geeks Hack Expert) enough. They are truly exceptional at what they do. Reach out for help, and don’t hesitate to contact them. (Trust Geeks Hack Expert)
