A TEENAGER is fighting for her life in hospital after falling from a hotel balcony in Majorca during the family's first family holiday abroad.

Milly Whitlock Doe, 15, lives at Thorney Hill in the New Forest, where a candlelit vigil was held for her on Sunday night.

Reports say Milly’s parents had not taken out travel insurance and could face medical bills totalling tens of thousands of pounds.

A JustGiving page has been set up to help them cover the cost of her care and her return flight to the UK.

More than £7,000 has already been raised for the youngster, who was taken to Son Espases in Palma after emergency services were called to S’Illot around 9.30pm on Tuesday, August 27.

The fundraising page, which has a £20,000 target, has been set up by family friend Erica Arnold.

It says: "This family went on their first-ever holiday abroad with their four children for a week last Monday.

“On Tuesday, tragedy struck when their oldest child fell off the hotel balcony. She sustained severe head and other injuries and, after being stabilised, was taken by ambulance to Son Espases Hospital, Palma, where she is expected to remain for eight weeks until she is well enough to be flown back to the UK.

“At present, she is critical on life support and in an induced coma.

"She has had two brain surgeries and will need two more, spinal surgery and other surgery. Once back in the UK she will need further medical intervention.

"The girl’s parents desperately need accessible accommodation to commute to the hospital. This is somewhere the family has never travelled to before; everything is new and confusing.

"The language barrier makes the simplest of things difficult, especially as all their time and thoughts are currently with their daughter. They also have limited finances.

"This was their first family holiday abroad; they saved a long time. However, they don't have any additional funds, and were only supposed to be away for one week. Unfortunately, the family did not take out any holiday insurance due to being new to foreign travel.

"This young lady is loved by so many; she’s always smiling and fun and is a brilliant horse rider with her whole life ahead of her."

The vigil was held at All Saints Church in Thorney Hill.

Advertising the event on Facebook the church said: "Many people in Bransgore and Thorney Hill will be praying, as we are, for Milly."
